Hello! I have a Compaq Presario 6450nx. Before I update windows XP home edition, I didn`t have any problem with the standby function. But now, if I click on Standby button when I turn off the computer , it goes in stanbby mode for a few seconds then restart by himself again. The same problem...

I POSTED THE TWO PROBLEMS BELOW YESTERDAY on THE COMPAQ SITE AND GOT SOME HELP, BUT NOTHING HAS HELPED.. Two real problems -- anything in the CD drive, after windows 98se has started causes blue screen of death and then a functional crash (tried turning off DMA, etc. as suggested) So I can't use...

I have a Compaq Prosignia that insists on booting from a network and only a network. How do I manage to change this so it will boot from a floppy, hard drive, or CD like any other computer? I know there is probably a setting in the CMOS for this, but I can't find it. Could someone out there help...

I'm looking for a storage consultant in the South San Francisco Bay Area to do occasional short jobs testing storage arrays, bringing them up to latest firmware, etc. I'm very flexible on hours, and this could even be done by someone with a regular job during off hours. Time would not exceed...

I have a deskpro EN in which I recently replace the hard drive. Afterwards it would not boot at all. No errors, nothing. So I rest the CMOS using the jumper. Now it boots fine; it will go into F10 setup, or start to run Windows setup from the CD. But it automatically goes into "Sleep" or...

Just got a Powerleap adapter (PL-iP3/T) + Celeron 1400 (Tualatin) package in the mail today, and found out it that it does indeed work in my Deskpro EN SFF. I wasn't sure it would, since Powerleap's compatibility database did not have a listing for this adapter on the SFF Deskpro. Quite an...

About six weeks ago I shipped off my Presario 1700T laptop for repair. The hard drive had some mechanical problems and the battery was dead. Both should have been covered under my extended three year warranty. Just last week, I finally got confirmation that my laptop was received. Their...

Hi all, I have located a cd rom drive to replace the failed one in my friends notebook (Presario 1235). I haven't taken a good look at it yet because the notebook currently not at my house but is this a repair I can tackle myself? Any obvious snags I should be aware of? Will I have to disasemble...

If I take a hard drive from a Gateway (Essentials, running ME), and put it into a Presario 5000, it apparently might or might not run. BUT, is there any danger to the hd in trying? Could anything on the hd become overwritten, or would the bootup just fail? Thanks. (I'm waiting for delivery of new...

Hello, I've been having trouble connecting to the Sympatico Highspeed Internet (via an Alcatel USB modem) on my Compaq Presario 5838. When I purchased the system a couple of years ago I didn't get any disks with it. It has Win 98 2nd edition installed (I do have a licensed version of Win98 but...

I upgraded a Presario notebook 1800XL390 to Windows XP, but lost some of the Synaptics touchpad capabilities, including ability to create zones with special key links. I have installed HP/Compaq's update (2002), and also tried a generic XP driver from Synaptics, without success. Does anyone where...

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?
