I just got a Presario 2100 that I needed in a hurry. As a result I bought it from a chain store and it came standard with Winblows XP. I tried to load Windows 2000 professional which I legally own a copy of and prefer to use. When I re-booted after the OS load 4 drivers for the system were missing...

The kids' Compaq Presario 4814 has no power. When I plug the box into the wall outlet the fan turns for about 3 seconds then stops. I'm wondering if it may be the power supply. Anything else I should consider before spending $71 for a new power supply?

Can someone help me to figure out how to set the Compaq Proliant DL380 to automatically power up when the power is restored? I can't find the option in the BIOS Thanks allot Darius

Hi, I have a broken Compaq T1500h UPS. It broke when I removed main power without unplugging the connected devices first (I wanted to test the battery).
