Questions of Compaq Presario CQ60 with restore settings factory, sticked on a blue screen (BSOD, no)

Hello, I have to get my usual laptop fixed, so I decided to get out of my Presario CQ60, which I have not used in 4-5 years. The operating system is Windows Vista Basic and I want to perform a restore factory settings (I don't mind losing the data on it) and upgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium. So far I tried to do a restore to factory settings by pressing F11 several times to start, and I get to a screen that says "Windows loading files", which leads to a black screen. After what seems like a long time, a blue screen appears where I have control of my cursor (not the Blue Screen of Death) and nothing has changed since. I will update with any changes, because things seem to happen after letting it go for a while, but for now any suggestions on what to do? Let me know if I've left out any information. Thank you!

Hello

We can not help you with this problem of factory settings.

Press F11 at STARTUP is the method that HP plans to use.

http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&LC=en&DLC=en&docName=c00809678#n405

  1. Turn off the computer if it is not already turned off.
  2. Disconnect any external devices such as printers, USB drives and memory cards.
  3. Turn on the computer and immediately press the F11 key several times , about once a second, until the Recovery Manager opens.
  4. In the Recovery Manager welcome screen, click Next .
  5. On the Microsoft System Restore screen, select No , and then click Next .
  6. On the System Recovery screen, select Yes , and then click Next to continue the recovery process.

etc.

And that is the recovery Partition and the process which they installed during the manufacturing process, not Microsoft HP

You will need to contact HP or ask questions in the forums to Support HP about this problem.

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

And I don't think that it will be suitable for the upgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium as being Vista Basic, the material it will not suitable or sufficient to run Windows 7 properly and I have no idea if HP even wrote Windows 7 drivers for it.

Before you buy Windows 7 after Vista fixed:

Go to your computer / computer laptop manufacturer Web site and see if Windows 7 drivers are available for your make and model computer / laptop.

If this is not available, Windows 7 will not properly work for you.

Run the "Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor.

  • HP compaq presario cq60-215dx restore factory settings

    I am selling my computer compaq presario cq60-215dx laptop model and cannot figure out how to restore the factory settings. I tried a number of things... I pressed f9 to turn on the computer that has windows vista. Then I pressed ESC which lead me to the windows Boot Manager. It is said "to specify an advanced for this choice option, press f8." So I did and went up a list of the advanced startup options and 'repair your computer' is the one I clicked on because they say this option restores the system. Another menu came with the system recovery options, then I clicked on the full restoration of a windows PC with a description explaining that this will restore your entire server or personal computer from a backup image. I clicked on that and an error message came say that validates a backup location could not be found. Windows cannot find a backup on this computer. Set the backup hard drive or insert the final DVD of a backup set, then click Retry. What does that mean?

    Please, see performing a recovery of the system (Windows Vista) HP for instructions on performing a HP system on yyour computer recovery. If you have not created your HP recovery disks, you can do prior to the recovery. HP recovery disks are a Fail Safe incase something goes wrong.

    If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.

  • 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.

    Hi realpommy. If you encounter problems with HDMI output and let Windows determine the pilots, who could be part of the issue.  First of all try to install these Windows 7 drivers provided by HP for your laptop: NVIDIA nForce Chipset MCP77MV graphics drivers

    After installation and reboot, if you still have problems with video output look in Device Manager, to ensure that there is no error, or "unknown devices".  The section "Understanding of the symbols of error Device Manager" in this document:
    Information from the Device Manager in Windows 7 to illustrate some possible errors.

    If there is no error in Device Manager, do through these documents for more information and the last for troubleshooting ideas:
    Connection of a monitor, projector or a TV (Windows 7)
    Overview of HDMI and DVI for PC connections

    HDMI display resolution and problems of his (Windows 7 and Vista)

    Let me know if it helps.

  • Compaq Presario CQ60-210US pre-staged at level question

    I have a laptop Compaq Presario CQ60-210US I intend to upgrade to Windows 7.  Right now it is running Vista 32 bit and 2 GB memory system.  I am considering upgrading to 4 GB in the future and I know that on systems with dedicated video memory, that should be the 64-bit version.

    What I want to know, because the video chip takes his memory system memory and has no own dedicated memory, if she really wants to be worth upgrading to Windows 7 64 - bit during the upgrade to Windows 7 32 bit?

    Well, if you want not to lose any only upgrade to 3 GB, it removes the BONE size and is used for the video if you put 4 GB, but you can still see an improvement over 3 GB.

    I tried both on no specialized memory units and I saw a slight improvement with 4, nothing to wirte welcome words but I was running SW benchmarking.

    So 3 GB and you lose nothing, 4 GB, you may lose half a GB.

  • Upgrade CPU Compaq Presario CQ60-216TX

    Hello - looking for help with information for a possible CPU upgrade

    Re: Compaq Presario CQ60 - 216TX laptop...

    Motherboard is HP 488338-001 alternative No. Its one with onboard nVidia graphics and an hdmi output.

    Here is an example of eBay:

    The current processor is an Intel Pentium Dual Core T4200 2.0 Ghz, 800 MHz FSB, socket P...

    See: http://www.cpu-world.com/sspec/SL/SLGJN.html

    The options available in the link of the CQ60 User Guide: point 13 down:

    http://h10032.www1.HP.com/CTG/manual/c02985882.PDF

    relate only to the:

    CPU T3200 http://www.cpu-world.com/sspec/QB/QBNT.html

    and CPU T3400 http://www.cpu-world.com/sspec/QG/QGFM.html

    processors respectively both with a 667 Mhz front bus and 1 MB of L2 cache

    The question is what the CPU can be used as a possible substitute for a performance on the T4200 gain?

    The following text appears to be very similar to the T4200, but roll up a gear clock spec. None of them would be viable and of course even wouldn't she do on such an older machine now? The BIOS would support a higher clocked CPU speed?

    T4300 (2.1 GHz), T4400 (2.2 Ghz), T4500 (2.3 Ghz), - all ran 800 Mhz bus speed and 1 MB of L2 cache

    CPU is not mentioned on any other ideas that could also work with the specified above mother card would also be appreciated.

    Thank you

    Yes, there is a point in going more slowly so that your pc supports dual channel.
    You have 800 MHz if you hace two-channel memory will clock at 533 Mhz and then multiplied twice which is 1066 Mhz
    It is a parameter which allocates memory of your cpu (long story)
    and as I can see, your PCH supports 1066 Mhz which will make it intresting.

    Hello

    I have compaq presario CQ60-419WM with processor AMD Sempron (http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c01753032) and I want to upgrade.

    I did some research and found out that it is possible to uprade my cpu with this processor TMRM72DAM22GG (AMD Turion 64 X 2 2.0 GHZ). im posting this question because I want to assure you that I will buy the right processor and not wasting money. I googled and this site is the only store that can shipped here in the Philippines.

    will this work with my camera? http://www.aliexpress.com/item/brand-new-laptop-CPU-processor-AMD-Turion-64-X2-RM-75-RM75-TMRM75DAM2...  or any suggestions? Please

    Turn on computer and upcoming stops: the user profile service has not the log on.

    Thanks for any help that can be provided.

    Hi @doublesix66 ,

    Thank you for visiting the Forums HP's Support and welcome. It's a great site for information and questions. I looked in your question about your Compaq Presario CQ60-210US laptop and receiving a message from the user profile service failed the log on. Here is a fix for it from Microsoft. It seems that the profile you are trying to connect to a file corrupted in it.

    You can do a System Restore. System Restore will help if something is automatically updated and wasn't on the laptop. This helps others correct this error message.

    When running a system restore note remove all USB devices. Disconnect all non-essential devices because they can cause problems.

    I hope this helps.

    Thank you.

    Your laptop is probably the Atheros AR5007 wireless network adapter.

    If so (you can check by going to the Device Manager, expand network adapters device category to see the name and number of the model wireless network card), this driver installation normally solves this problem...
