Reposting to other groups too. Technically not a "recall" but it is. Do not toss that Compaq/ HP laptop or batter nor pay anyone to fix the PC until you READ THIS: While at the HP site checking my battery issue: ...

I recently acquired an HP Compaq Evo D510 with the following specification : P4 2.4Ghz, 1Gb DDR Ram & 40Gb HDD. I always use Acronis True Image Server to restore my Partition images that I've previously backed up, one for the c: (windows xp pro) and the other is e: (applications). For some...

Hello all: I have a Compaq Presario R3060CA laptop I bought May/June 2004. It comes with a Hitachi Travelstar 60GB hard disk. I also bought a similar 2.5" hard disk, a Hitachi Travelstar 40GB, for use in an external casing (USB2.0). Now the HT 60GB has failed on me after weeks of...

Try asking in alt.sys.pc-clone.compaq.server, probably more expertise there on the server side hardware. KC From: "karol" Subject: Proliant 2500 how to configure array ? Date: Tuesday, December 21, 2004 1:48 PM Hi everybody.

Does anyone know if there exists an external battery charger available for a Compaq Presario 2100 laptop? My laptop has a loose connection when the A/C charger is plugged in; this was fixed by Compaq less than a month ago and it has broken again -- is this a common problem or a design defect? In...

By default I have come to own a Presario 5441. I'm looking to set it up for the kids to use when they visit. It had a bunged up Windows XP Pro installation, so I formated and started over with Windows 2000. Looking to put it on a wireless home network. Specs: CPU: AMD K6-2 472 AFX RAM: 256...

Hopefully the store you are shopping at has the keyboards out on display so that you an touch them. Avoid the sub $20.00 keyboards and type on some of the more expensive ones, find one you like the feel of. I recently bought a cheap HP 514N for my office and absolutely love the feel of the...

a few months ago, I bought a used Presario 1925 laptop, with the detachable DVD/floppy drive wedge. Other than the battery only giving about 5 minutes of operating time, and the DVD only playing about 10-15 minutes before it starts skipping and finally locks up, I've been pleased with it, and...

I have just acquired an old Compaq Armada E500 notebook through work for free. The machine itself is in good working order but it has obviously been dropped as there is damage to one of the screen hinges and the power connector socket has snapped off. I'm not spending hundreds on a new...

I am working on a compaq 5000 with an AMD K6-II processor in it and I cannot figure out why it constantly freezes up on me. I have completely formatted and restored the OS (Win ME) and done a BIOS (ROMpaq) update. I have run a test on all of the hardware and it checks out OK using the Compaq...

I have an old Compaq LTE notebook - the Pentium with a 90MHz chip. I could never get the thing to work right, so I'm trying to Craigslist it. However, I can't get Win95 to boot up. Even though the HD shows up on the system configurator, the notebook simply refuses to recognize it on boot - I get...

I have a Compaq Presario 1510T which is Really an Evo N100C, as I just discovered... My AC adapter does not charge the batteries any longer. Gave it in to fix, but it couldn't be fixed for some reason. Is there an external battery charger that would work with this model (also compatible with...

Hello again. With the RAM replaced, and tests checking out, the Compaq is working fine and I'm sure noticeably smoother. I just wanted, though, to check something about the RAM I was sent. It says SFRAM - usually it's SDRAM isn't it? Is this okay? The chip is about 1/8 of an inch bigger but...

Well, it wasn't 3x256. Looks like the 3x128 or 384 is the max. Bought 3 256 sticks and no luck. I think I have the latest BIOS, but have you ever tried to find an update? Impossible. $280 down the drain unless I can return.

Hello experts and fellow Compaq users- I would be greatful if you could help me on this. I have a compaq presario 2500 laptop with an internal CD-Rom (not DVD) drive. Somebody recently gave me an internal DVD/CDRW drive (made by Compaq) which works with the 2500.

Hi, I have a 7EL193 Compaq Presario, I have the CD Recovery and the Compaq companion CD but I miss the QuickRestore CD or diskette to run the CD Recovery. Can somebody zip me the diskette or indicate the manual procedure to reinstall from scratch this computer? I am absolutely hopeless as I...
