Hi!

MX440 (AGP). There's an integrated graphics interface at the motherboard of

Compaq EVO D310 vs Nvidia-ASUS Geforce4 / The battle continues. by

Hello again!
I still have problems with the Compaq EVO D310 and ASUS V9180 Magic/Geforce

looks like our compaq's is some kind of modified version? We don't have any
jumpers on the board that can help us. We have flashed...

Presario 5030 BIOS replacement? by
Toman
Hi group.
I'm concidering flashing 'up' the BIOS in my Presario 5030 using a non-
compaq one. (YES, I know this is no-no, and immoral etc) But I imagine this
will give me greater control over the PC. However, as you can imagine, I
wonder what motherboard this model has.
What I know: It has an...

AGP settings in Compaq Bios? by
Tom Scales
Compaq Presarios have a very limited BIOS. You may want to look into
utilities that allow you to configure the card, rather than the BIOS.
Also, if his AGP slot is faster (8x vs 4x for example) that would make a
huge difference.
Lastly, have you shut down a lot of the background programs? ...

Power by
Tom Scales
Your computer does not have ACPI, it has APM for power management.
I don't remember the exact steps, but go into the Power applet in Control
Panel. There should be an APM tab. On that should be a check box you have
to check. It might not be there, might be in System. I'm doing this from

5002US Questions by
Tom Scales
Unless the 5002US was built within the last 9 months or so, it is USB1.1.
The symptom of the CD drive has, in my experience, been blank related. For
example, TDK blanks, in my drive at work, are LOUSY, but cheap off-brand
work fine.
What software are you using and what brand of blanks?
