We had a lightning strike nearby the other day, and I lost the sound on my Compaq 6320US. My old Compaq laptop had a system diagnostic program to test the system hardware, but I can't find one on this computer, or on the support website. I'm running XP Pro. Any ideas?

The internal keyboard just up and quit working, leaving me brother with only a, x, caps lock, and 1 keys working. Using external keyboard works fine but it's a PITA to lug around extra keyboard. I've taken it apart and cleaned and reseated the keyboard connector but it made no difference. I...

Anyone using Nero Express with a Compaq Computer? When I copy Pictures for showing on a DVD using VCD or SVCD the most pictures I can copy are 96 and the CD shows only 60 Mb of space used. I've Emailed Ahead software on several occasions - but guess what no response. Does anyone know a good...

I just started a new job and my new laptop is the Compaq tablet. I like the idea of the tablet, but this machine is horrible. The concept and ergonomics are excellent, but what idiot picked the Transmeta Crusoe processor? It is so slow you can watch the menus open in slow motion. Oh, and a 10"...

I have a Compaq Armada 7800. With the power cord connected the laptop runs fine and power management reports only 3% of the battery is full and that it is still charging when in fact its not. I have a new battery and external charger so I know the battery is good and fully charged, also the...

I have a Compaq Presario 5900Z with Athlon 750 processor running Win98. It appears my original video card is dying, I'm getting large vertical lines of garbage down the screen in all modes, including the Compaq splash screen. Moving the cursor effectively obliterates anything it passes over. If...

I have a compaq presario 5150. I've upgraded it to a dvd-rom drive, cd-r drive and more memory. Now I need more hard drive space. I can't find 5.25 hard drives but I can get and adapter and just use a 3.5? I want to get 80 gb and put Windows2000 on it. Would it be able to handle those upgrades?

I'd like to upgrade my processor in my Presario 5423US.It has a 1.6 P4 at 400mhz.Compaq support gives you the standard"consult local service center"nonsense.The most common answer is that it will support at least a 2.0,but which version,there are many models to choose from,even if you narrow it...

Austin, I'm having the exact same situation on (AMD, 700 MHz), which is also second-hand, has WinME on it, with no apparent driver conflicts. To answer your question first -- it doesn't seem that absent floppy should be a problem, though no CPU fan potentially could cause overheat damage to CPU,...

Hi folks. Got a Deskpro EN DT P400 here. There is a 4meg ati agp card in it and i'd like to replace it with a 32meg ati rage128 agp. Now the 4 meg agp card has only a half-bracket. can the full bracket 32meg agp still fit in here?
