Upgrading Presario 1255 memory? by Wayne
Is there a way through the bios (or other non-destructive means) to increase the ram memory capacity of a Compaq Presario 1255? In other words can a 256mb ram expansion be made to work? The manufacturer's stated max is 160mb. Thanks Wayne

CMOS battery Compaq 7790dmt laptop by [email protected]
Does anyone know where this battery is located and can it be easily replaced? .. . . or does the CMOS get its power from the main battery pack? We have a laptop that defaults to 1980 time when turned off, and which will not respond to `F10' attempts to get to the setup menu.
