Problem with new Compaq CQ58

I bought a Compaq CQ58-201SA as a surprise gift for my young grandson.

BEFORE GIVING IT to HIM, I want to load some programs, so it's all ready for him to go.  However, when you start the new laptop for this purpose, I get invited to "Choose a color" (for display) and "Name your computer" as part of the initial installation process.  Well, I don't want to do this - it's for my grandson to decide later - but I find it impossible to overtake this screen without entering a name.

How can I pass this screen?  And will there be obstacles to go through before I can start loading the new similar software?

Please help a Grandpa who are struggling!

Thank you very much, Kalt.

It's a shame I won't be able to get his laptop in the mode "ready to go" before giving him the gift.  Well...

Thanks again for your quick and helpful response.

  • Problem with the Compaq Presario CQ60-216DX

    Hello, I'm having a problem with my NEW Compaq Presario CQ60-216DX mother. Every time it boots up vista and I run internet explorer, I get a strange blue screen which exports a file memory and reboots.

    I have the feeling that this might have been caused by a virus, but I can't do something, because Vista can't reformat long for some reason any.

    I tried a hard test in my motherboard and he said that there is something wrong with my hard drive.

    I don't know what is happening, right now I'm in safe mode trying to find viruses that Nod32 does not detect everything.

    Can someone tell me how I can get either the Windows XP Discs to work at startup (which, for some reason, they do not), or an alternative to a long format?

    Is there a way to fix this without reformatting? There's almost nothing on this laptop anyway so I'm always willing to do. A regular format has done nothing to solve the problem, I did it with Ubuntu and it did a quick format, but I had no problem with Ubuntu. Then I reinstall Vista and I am constantly having problems with a blue screen of death.

    Someone knows how to fix this?

    The Chemich does not exist

    If you want to do a reinstall of Vista then press F11 continuously during the boot upward. This will bring you in Recovery Options were you can choose to restore the system in the same State as when it was purchased. But if, as you suggested, is that a problem of hard drive reinstall won't help.

This is the Australian rule if you have a problem with in month thn, it should be replaced rather than fixing. I have problem starting with the product within one month, I approach of dicksmith three times, but they gave me a lollipop. I am very disappointed by the service of dicksmith.

  • Problem with new HARD drive and Qosmio Player installation

    Hi all
    I hope someone can help, I had my Qosmio for 2 1/2 years now and recently had a problem with the hard drive. I decided to replace the hard drive, because it was the fastest solution. The problem I have now is that I can't receive TV on media center. I tried to install qosmio player at the disk to see if it made any difference, but when I run the provided recovery disc software tells me that there is not enough disk space! The laptop came with a 60G hard drive and the new HARD drive manufactured by the same manufacturer is a 150 GB, can someone help me out with this would be appreciated.

    Thank you
    ED.

    Have you tried to install Qosmioplayer initially, then on operating system? If I remember well, on this first portable Qosmio, it was very important to install Qosmioplayer initially.

  • Hey I had a problem with my compaq cq62

    Well this is saying me tha theres no drivers on the pcwhen I try to program it, but on the screen after the compaq sign spell he found bootablr device. Insert a bootable CD, then press to continue, can I get help on this

    No boot device would mean that it cannot read a boot sector of any of the devices detected by your machine.  This could be because the hard drive is bad, the boot sector is damaged or you let a non bootable DVD/CD in the drive.  You can enter the bios and see if you have all of the hard drives listed or recognized by the system?  My best guess is that you have a problem with the hard drive.

  • Problem with new incoming messages to my Windows Mail account

    Since 2-3 weeks, I've known more fault with new messages from my Inbox on Windows Mail.  I have the 1st message, but then the connection is interrupted and I get the following message: "your server has ended suddenly the connection. The possible causes for this include server problems, network problems, or a long period of inactivity. Account: 'pop.tiscali.co.uk', server: 'pop.tiscali.co.uk', Protocol: POP3, Port: 110, secure (SSL): no, error number: 0x800CCC0F. "Error may occur when I log in to access new messages from the server, or when the mail comes while I was already connected.  The fault is intermittent: sometimes I can access mail normally again.  When I live the flaw, I close the Windows Mail error message, press the send/receive button and my incoming emails (including the 1st) is normally followed.  For the record, I'm not problems with outgoing mail.

    I would appreciate any ideas on what could be causing this fault and what remedial measures I could take.

    See if that helps.
     
    I have no first hand know how to do this in Norton that I would never use Norton. Very common with any security program which is mail scanning has never caused a problem, but there is an update and 'poof', there you go.

  • HP Officejet Pro L7590 problems with new software

    Hello

    I have a HP all-in-one OfficeJet Pro L7590.  I had to move the printer on another computer that is running Windows 7.

    When I install and try to print to the printer does not act as he did with the software that was on the old computer XP.

    What I mean is that the printer will not print double side which is a feature that I used a lot.

    I downloaded and reinstalled the software and downloaded used the HP print and Scan doctor.  When executing this I was told there was a driver conflict so I unplugged the usb cable and drivers have been removed and when I plugged it in new dirivers were installed.

    Always when I go to properties and select Quick economy and printing on two sides he spits a page then the printer acts as if it was out of paper, and then when I press OK on the printer it prints the second page on another sheet of paper.  Note: What is printed on the 1st page prints correctly and what is printed on the 2nd page works properly for printing on the other side, but it is not the other side, but a separate sheet of paper.

    Your help would be MOST APPRECIATED what!

    Note: I repeat that the software that worked under Windows XP has never had this problem.  This new version of the software running under Windows 7 has a problem.

    Hello

    Just to thank everyone who responded to my questions about the problem with printing 2 Facer on OfficeJet Pro L7590 by HP.  I did the following and it seems to have solved the problem of this printer DO NOT print on two sides of a sheet of paper.

    1 deleted all the computer printer software

    2 used the utility available on HP website washer to clean any persistent software that I couldn't find.

    3. set the printer back to factory defaults.

    4 use HP printer Installation Wizard to find and install the fix version of the software that sits on the HP website.

    Thanks again for those who repsonded and I hope the above helps anyone who might read this message.

  • Problem with the Compaq 6715 network s

    Dears

    I have compaq 6715 s running windows XP SP3

    I have a problem with my network connections, whenever I am connected via the LAN port Ethernet, wireless connection is automatically disabled and I can't enable it.

    is this normal or should I do something to use both connections at the same time to connect to two different networks.

    Thanks in advance for your support

    Hello:

    This is perfectly normal, and you can fix it easily also.

    Go into the BIOS and in the sub-menu of device configuration, modify the LAN/WLAN, set active to disabled.

    Save the setting it by hitting the F10 key and again when you go out (save the settings and exit).

    Now the wireless stays on when you connect by using a LAN cable.

  • Problem with new router WRVS4400N

    I recently bought a new Cisco WRVS4400N router for our network which has 19 computers connected to a switch of 24 ports.  We currently use a D-Link router and migrate to the Cisco router.  The problem I have is that as soon as I connect one of our servers or the switch 24 ports to the Cisco router I can no longer access the internet or the connection to the network, I can also access the routers of each server configuration.  If I connect the router to make a stand-alone computer I can access the configuration and change things, but as soon as I connect the server or switch 24 ports everything dies (all lights are green on the router but if everything is connected).

    Has anyone experience this problem with this router?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Kind regards

    Shawn

    Hi Shawn,

    Thank you for posting. The server provides DHCP on your network? If so, disable the DHCP server on the WRVS4400N before you connect it to your network.

    You have no problem with your old monitor?
    Did you use another resolution (bottom) with the old?
    You can try to fix this old resolution for your new monitor, too.

  • Problem with new AnyConnect app for iPhone

    I use the AnyConnect client for iPhone 2.4.4014 for months with no problems.  I upgraded to 2.5.4038 and now when it is connected, it can not resolve any DNS on the private network.  iPhone iOS is 4.2.10 and that has not changed.  The only change in the mix is an upgrade to the AnyConnect client on the iPhone.  Connection to an ASA 5510.

    Has anyone else had problems with this?

    Thanks for this tip! I saw a very inconsistent behavior of my email clients, email after a significant delay or only with the success of the poll for incoming mail sometimes. I added our internal domain to the list of split-dns default GP and he restored the function of the mobile customer AC.

    You saved me a few hours of debugging work!

  • Problem with new Skype updated for iPad 2 version 4.0.1325

    Since the upgrade to the new version, I was not able to do a video Skype or voice call on my iPad 2 anyone else having trouble? I am able to send messages from Skype.

    Ah-Ah. Problem solved at least for me. Maybe others can use this trick as well. I was trying to Skype with someone on the international plan, which had not updated their Skype to the new version. Once she did that, we were able to talk. So if you can not Skype with someone, ask them to check if their version of Skype is in common and upgrade if necessary. Hope this helps others who may have connection problems.

  • Photosmart B109a-m: HP Photosmart B analysis problem with new HP computer

    I recently updated my computer to an HP all-in-one running Windows 8.1.

    I used to be able to scan on my HP Photosmart with several options, including "Paper to Searchable PDF File" and "text (OCR) in a RTF file. Unfortunately, these options are not available on my new computer and I can only scan to PDF or TIF format.

    Is there something I need to download to enable me to continue scanning to searchable PDF?

    Thank you

    Calum

    Hi @kiwiscot8,

    Welcome to the HP Forums!

    I noticed that before you upgrade to WIndows 8.1 you had options for 'Document to Searchable PDF File' and 'Text (OCR) to RTF File' with your HP Photosmart B109a. I'm happy to help you!

    After some research I came across this post, Re: impossible to analyze OCR on a model of all-in-One Photosmart B109n-z, @Timoto, I think will help your situation.

    Hope this solves the problem for you and have a nice day!

  • "Print cartridge problem" with new black cartridges.

    For some reason, my printer reject print with this error all new cartridges. This printer is a HP Officejet 4500 G510g, and it's "901" ink that has the problem. I bought two cartridges of this type, new and apparently falsified with Wal-Mart. I tried to use both of them in the printer and it came with this error. Troubleshooting assistance, I can only find that I need to clean, I did then as directed. Yet none of them works. I don't know why, but they do not work. I don't want to erase Walmart on all of their ink cartridges to find a working one... Why am I having this problem? The printer do not error when I put the old cartridge back, so I don't really know where the shoe pinches.

    Apparently, my printer is out of warranty, which took end of February 2011, even if I bought this printer in September 2012. That in itself is meaningless, and I do not know where a party has to prove when I bought...

    I tried all of these steps, including the hard reset, and nothing has worked. But, I got a solution.

    Apparently, for some reason, cartridges, I had to come at Wal-Mart were not working and I went to Office Max instead bought one of there. Surely enough, it works beautifully. I don't really know why, but none of them worked at Walmart...

    It is not really of sense unless sold defective products from Walmart, but I know where to find ink cartridges in the future.
