Hi. I have a T1010 Terminal but not the Power Supply... I think I can user a PC power supply but where I can 'send' the 5V in the T1010 ?? I search the pin description of the power pins in the T1010. Thank you ! Teddy

I've just recently been afflicted with a problem concerning the Compaq FS740 model. I'm as surprised as can be when it happened, as I have no idea how it occurred. I was browsing the internet when the screen just suddenly changed the magnitude of its concavity (the screen took on a concave shape,...

I have a D510 that comes with the standard 220W power supply. I'm looking to put a nVidia 6800GS video card into it, but I'm a bit worried about the power requirements.

OK, I had to change the system BIOS settings in order to upgrade my sound card - and now the damn video card doesn't work. It's an AGP GeForce 5600 - and no matter what I do, I can't get it to use it. It's nothing to do with the sound card, either - it does this same degree of nothing, even when...

Hey all. I just picked up an E500 on ebay. I'm testing it and see that the display is shrunken. It has no OS yet. When it boots, it gives the full screen Compaq name, but then in BIOS or DOS it is only has a 4x5" display in the middle of the screen. What might be causing that? Thanks, Steve

I have a presario 6420nx that I am very fond of. It is running the AMD 2200+ 1.8, and I have a 2600+ 2.13 laying around. I wonder, would it be a problem to swap this in? Will there be BIOS or CMOS issues?

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...

I am new owner of a Presario 4504 (a dubious honor) and am tying to install a 20g drive in place of the factory installed (5") 2g unit. Besides the mounting being different, it does not recognize the OS and fails to boot. The new drive is loaded w/XP How do I tell The System that there is a new...
