Presario CQ70

Hi all

As you can see on the topic, I have a Presario CQ70-211EM.  It has a 160 GB hard drive.  What is the greatest player that I can show that the bios will see?

Thank you very much

Thank you for that.  I didn't spend the money on a player who wasn't going to work.

    Thank you, but I've now sorted. If anyone has this problem as it seems to happen for a lot of these models, all I had to do is take off the screen and theres a card below the screen theres a black wire with a white contector of this card that seemed to be attracted to the lifting up & down the screen. all I did was to pull the wire through which gives him a bit of slack to move and I recorded it down and everything was fine

  • Problem with cooling - HP Compaq Presario CQ70-211EM

    Hi, I didn't really know where to post, so I decided to post here, sorry if this is the wrong place.

    So, I have this laptop (HP Compaq Presario CQ70-211EM) for 3 years now, everything works fine, except the system cooling, computer laptop everything gets REALLY hot, after have 10 (!) minutes, I still have it, throughout the day, he is standing on a special base, fan has been cleaned (by me) 2 months ago. The areas that become really hot are: hard drive, ram, area around the fan and the left side of the laptop.

    I don't know what to do, any ideas? I really need help

    Additional information:

    Windows 7 Ultimate x 86(32bit), 160 GB of HDD, 2 GB RAM, fan, always, always connected (the battery is dead).

    ~ Viper13

    You can also remove the battery since you mention that he died anyway. Sometimes removing aid to cooling. When you set the bass processor speed - you changed it under 'Sector' haven't you?

    Yes, remove the old compound with alcohol. You can get Arctic Silver 5 here or in of many stores, Radio Shack, Best Buy, Staples, etc. Below are videos showing application of Arctic Silver and ceramics, the two coupons.

  • Compaq Presario CQ70-116EM notebook: overheating, stop, "Lightning symbol" flashing.

    Hi people,

    My laptop (type in the title) is working absolutely fine for the better part of 18 months until recently where it was extremely hot underneath (I guess it's overheating), but he then turns off and when I press the power button to wake it up, a little light in the form of "Lightning" flashes between the power light and the light indicating a disc present (the power and the light disc not flashing).

    I tried most of the procedures standard (I followed EACH link for help on Internet, vacuum cleaner sites on the fan vents and sent e-mail messages), but in the end, it brings me back to where I started, so I resorted to this forum.

    Please can someone help?

    People OK, problem solved. Basically, what happened was that some solder had melted by the motherboard so was not enough power to the laptop and so it won't turn.

    I have sent a repairman so everything of fine, hope it will be useful.

    Boy, that might be embarrassing. Just open the HP total care advisor and can see that the C: drive is full 99%... so I guess that's the problem? Apart from deleting files or programs not needed... any recommendations for doing this?
