System Diagnostic Tools for Presario 6320US? by Steven Troyer
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?

Compaq tablet is a DOG by Tom Scales
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"...

Evo N1015 and s-video. by SFR
Not if your SCART connector is only composite compatible... Should be RGB compatible (usually on recent tvs, not on old ones...) Second thing, just check, if you can have access to a TV with a s-video input connector, if everything works ok frst... My 2 cents :) Serge
