  I wanted to know where to find the model number for my Compaq Deskpro EN. I looked around in line, but nobody seems to have a permanent place to get it. I have a sticker on the top of my computer that has a serial number and another number, but that's all. Is there a way I can get my serial number model number, or is there another place to a model number?

• Satellite L750 - low wireless signal

  I have a 5 day old L750 Satellite which can collect only 40% wireless signal less than 20cm from the router and loses signal total of about 2 m of him, turned to Toshiba support who suggested to the restoration of the system, did this and no improvement. Have you checked the Atheros driver and he said to his place to date, also checked the option to which has been suggested in other threads.

  The router is good because my vintage Compaq and ipad2 have full strength signal of several rooms by far.

  Please help as I'm pretty impressed with my first purchase of Toshiba and will return it if I can't solve this problem.

  Hello

  Have you noticed this problem only with the Eco Mode setting or also with power plan to high performance? This means that you must define * Maximum Performance * power option for the WLAN card in terms of power.

  Next to the update of the WLAN driver, you should also check the BIOS version. Take a look at the page if there is a newer version and if so try to update from Toshiba:

Is there a software related issue?  Sometimes I click on print files and it happaned.  I reinstalled my drivers for my Xerox WorkCentre XL2120 and now he just happaned once again.   Once I close a window.  The only error I have at the moment in the event viewer has to do with the TrueVector monitor for my timing of Zone Evetn ID 7009 alarms.  This evetn doesn't happan while checking error.

• Product key not accepted when you try to install Windows XP.

  Windows Xp reinstall the product key invalid pop up

  OK, so here starts my road of woes. First of all, I got a problem with a driver updated on a COMPAQ DeskPro ENS P866. It complements removed all the sounds of this PC. I tried every fix on every techie forum goes without result... including uninstalling, resettlement (thanks to automatic and manual methods). Stop and start services, Fix IT, restores... etc etc. You name it I tried it. I knew that these drivers were on the original Windows installation, so I decided to bite the bullet and do a complete Tassel and take all the patches from its state of origin (desperate that Yes). OK so I took screen prints of my information on the product and information system before you start... I started to follow the XP Reinstall instructions by the support site for windows... and everything seemed to be going great until I arrived at the main screen of the product. I put in my 25 char key and got the pop up "the product Id you entered is not valid. The CD I have, was not a copy retail it was a copy of illigit. However, I bought a license real profit to perform this legal copy... then this could explain why its causing me problems? Otherwise why the * it will not accept my key bought. I checked then double I indexed in as it was printed... and I am really frustrated. Ive gone 1 speaker works do not, no noise, no computer/XP... I tried the Chat Support and they confirmed my product key is still valid... and is the version correct etc etc. But thensaid I need to call a number paying to discuss further. I realize XP is under extended warranty... They want to pay my 46 + VAT + extras before they will even speak with me... at all. So what now? Product ID is 7558881-76487-084-22948 Microsoft Windows XP Professional... updated originally to NT/2000. The sticker on the unit refers to the earlier version HELPPPPP!

• Why is my hard disk so full?

  Hello

  I had a problem recently with my Compaq Deskpro EN, who has a 20 GB HARD drive Maxtor 6E020L0.
  He quickly lost space, and now it has 0 bytes of space on D:. C: I have 298 MB of space, which is OK, I guess.
  I continued doing disk clean ups and finally resorted to download several programs of cleaning disc. Those who have worked for a while and then it became new.
  I need help!
  Dave

  You should have 20% on C free disk space? What is D?

  I'd be interested to see a report of Disk Defragmenter. Open Disk Defragmenter and click analysis. Select view report, and then click Save as and save. Now find VolumeC.txt in your My Documents folder. Open the file, and place the cursor anywhere in the file, select Edition, select all to select all the text and copy and paste into the body of your message. To do this, before you run Disk Defragmenter because it is more informative.

  As Daavee said 20 GB is really very small even for Windows XP!

• Speech recognition

  My uncle needs a speech recognition software. He has a Compaq Deskpro with Windows XP SP2 with Intel Pentium 3 processor.

  Does anyone know of a good program?

  -MIFRAS

  Hello Mifras N.

  There is no speech recognition engine (SRE) integrated directly into Windows XP. You must install a compatible engine, and in most cases, you will install it in one of the two sources.

  Click on the number below and the website for more information.

  KB Article ID: 306901 -how to use speech recognition in Windows XP
  http://www.Microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/Setup/expert/moskowitz_02september23.mspx

  You'll need to get a good microphone, such that it will be imperative to not go out noice that the microphone picks up.
  Windows Vista and Windows 7 have speech recognition in operating systems.

  I hope this helps.

  Thank you

  I bought a Compaq Presario s3310 om (2600 + amd athlon with XP Home Edition.) S # 31316953)

  When I start the computer the computer beeps continiously and nothing happens after that. I did some research and would like to confirm that it is a RAM problem. The original Ram has 512 MB of ddr sdram memory. I did a search on the diagnosis Compaq Bios Beep codes and a beep very indicates error memory - reinstall or replace and re test. I'm on the right track?

  Nothing is lost by air, dust off the RAM slots.  Not sure you interpretation of the beep codes are correct.

• The Compaq Presario 2100 laptop SSD upgrade

  I have a laptop Compaq Presario 2100 it was brand new in 2003. I have a newer laptop, but a train trying to upgrade the Presario 2100 as much as possible. This is the kind of a project now and I also want to get as much as possible out of it. I heard that SSDS are super fast and would improve performance a bit. Anyone did the upgrade to an SSD for their Persario 2100 notebook PC series already? All entries are appreciated, in particular information about the product that was used for the upgrade. If no one did, so nobody knows if it is possible to upgrade the Presario 2100 series laptop PC to an SSD?

  Thank you

  Huck

  Believe it or not, the maintenance manual is always available.

  Manual

  The Presario 2100 uses old school PATA (EIDE) hard disks that are different from those of the SSD SATA see you more often on the market. However, there is a PATA SSD. They cost a bit more per concert, of course. I put a PATA SSD in a laptop on the same vintage as the Presario 2100 and it does significantly improve start-up time and overall performance, but talk about the proverbial earrings on a pig!

  This is a 64 GB SSD PATA that would be perfect for the Presario 2100, but $ 90:

  On eBay you will probably find 32 gig for a little less versions.

  My questions are:-

  • If so, what should be the specifications for the SSD?

  Waiting for your first answers & thanks in advance!

  No he is the type of hard disk and how it connects, and you have this kind

  

  And an SSD is like this:

  

  See the difference in the interface? It is a kind of hole plug round/square of the thing. I could go on technically on different types of storage controllers and how to optimize the speed of SSD, but the different plug-ins is a killer deal from the outset.

  On what you can do if you want to speed up the hard disk, performance is to find a 7200 RPM hard drive PATA (top photo), which will be much faster than 4200 or 5400 RPM nature, which is probably what has / have. I actually bought a supply of 60 GB 7200 RPM IDE/PATA drives of the laptop that I use in my hobby of refurbishing older laptops. I don't want to sell to a member of the Forum HP (kind of conflict of interest), but I can probably direct you to the place I got them if you will send me a PM.

  My best real advice is that your laptop if it were a car would have the right to have "Antique" plates and is actually just a little newer than some of the 'old' portable in my "vintage" collection The market is very respectful of the buyer and you can get a laptop that will run rings around you for maybe $300 these days and will allow you to use a modern OS with a semblance of security. I don't think not that your could run anything newer than XP.

• Compaq 6200 Pro - serial port PCI does not

  Hello

  I have a problem with installing the correct drivers for HP Compaq PC 6200 Pro Small Form Factor,

  I can't get PCI serial port to work on Win XP...

  I tried all the official drivers on the HP support site.

  The PC came with pre installed Windows 7, so I'm downgrading to Win XP.

  
  

  
  

  

  Hello:

  It's like I initially thought... the AMT driver.

  Apparently, you have to manually install by clicking on the device in Device Manager, click on the driver tab, click on set to update driver. Select the driver manually search in a specific location, and then go to C:\ SWSETUP\sp52247 and install the drivers for this folder.

  Please read this post where I helped someone with a similar machine (the 6200 is a smaller version of the 8200) in the forum of business support. He could not get the driver to install by running the file. He had to install it manually, and it worked for him. So, it should work for you too.

  http://h30499.www3.HP.com/T5/business-PCs-Deskpro-Evo/8200-elite-PCI-serial-port-driver/TD-p/4835455

  You can use the drivers that I posted in the link above if you want to, but I think that they are the same.

  Niko79

  Hey there Niko79!

  Welcome to Apple Support communities, and one was happy too! GarageBand is an amazing place where we can all get creative and publishing wonderful content. I, too, have an amazing keyboard. Mine is an older Yamaha that I tried to connect with my Mac. In most cases, all that is needed is an update of the driver from the manufacturer. Here is the GarageBand help information:

  Be sure to follow the instructions supplied with the keyboard, which may include the installation of the driver appropriate to your computer. Check the Web site of the manufacturer for the latest version of the driver software. If you are using a MIDI interface, remember to follow the instructions provided with the interface.

  Due to the specificity of your device, the best solution would be to join Roland Support to confirm if such update is for OS X 10.11.6 El Capitan.
