What sort of problems are you having?

When I turn it on the CDdrive reads but the screen doesn't come on and it is very quiet... There is no crack in the screen though... It fell on the network card, got jammed in there good.

Sounds like you installed the OS in one machine and then moved the drive to another machine. No wonder it won't boot the OS. Try installing the OS on the machine you want to use it on.

I would like to use the AGP slot in my S6500NX in a dual monitor setup. However, the onboard video stops working when I insert the AGP card, due to auto-disabling. Is there anyway I can override this so I can have the onboard and the AGP video active simultaneously??

I have a friend that has this model, and it has given him nothing but problems since day one. So much stuff running in the back ground, etc etc. I would like to format the hard drive, get rid of everything that Compaq install and do a new install with XP PRO. My question is, where and how do I get...

Hi: I just installed a 2.0 USB PCI card. My 1.1 devices work fine through the card, but the Lacie 2.0 USB 250GB HD is not recognized by the computer. If I plug the HD into a 1.1 port, the computer can see the drive. The card was bought at compusa.com- it's an ALI. Installing the drivers didn't...

Ben, Thanks for the reply. I was at my son's house this weekend when I posted this request. Passed your reply on to him since I do not have access to his machine now that I am home. Anyway, the operating system is Windows 2000. The form factor for the system unit in question is a tower maybe...

I'm trying to find a 802.11g pcmcia wireless care that works in this laptop. So far I've tried a Linksys and a Motorola card. Linksys support indicated their card wasn't compatible with the TI pcmcia busmaster controller. With it, the laptop hangs as soon as I insert the card. The same thing...

I have a Compaq 7598 PIII 600Mhz It has a CD ROM drive and a CDRW The CDRW needs to be replaced and was wondering if it might be a problem if I replaced it with a faster burner which also can read (not write) DVD. The current one can only write at 4x. Or would it be better to try to get a cheap...

I had traded-in a non-working Compaq Deskpro Small Form Factor system. 800MHz P3/128Mb/15GB/CD-ROM. This does not give a video signal from either the integrated video card or a PCI graphics card that I inserted. No sound beeps but green LEDs on the motherboard, fans working, floppy seek and hard...

Any source for the audio driver for a Compaq presario 4220. Thanks

I recently had two most amazing experiences at the HP/Compaq web site. Using their direct chat system, I communicated with two very knowledgeable and extremely techs. I got the answers I needed in depth and without any BS in under 5 minutes each. When the one didn't have the answer right at...
