You need to change the user name and password from your grandson to new ones for you.

all that to say the built in keyboard is dead.? please tell what it does and does, not do... lets stick to simple first. notepad wins SIMPLE hands down.! try usb standard keyboard yet? it must work . this helps prove what's failing, i take it a mouse works USB and then built in pad right? if not the OS is corrupted. or the run box. you click start button, and then click run or search and the keyboard is dead. i think there is switch for turning on the screen keyboard (virtual ) that may be turned on, but you'd see that clear as day on the screen. so in effect there are 3 keyboad. the screen keyboard. the main kbd and a desktop usb keyboard. which work and not, tell the reason, why. if all were dead,then the OS is corrupted.

old compaq. LAPTOP,, 14 years old now, Im amazed it even glows at all with CCFL lamps not dead, wow.. its like a musiem piece. (sorry , grin) (back ground lamps CCFL) NO OS stated by you , XP, ????? why must helpers beg? and wifi , (difficult that) it's not wifi, its just that you use wifi most the time ,SEE? right? in fact we could remove the wifi module. and prove that. disabling wifi is airplane mode, (todays jargon) but means the wifi transmitter is now OFF (airplane safe is THAT) the blue screens tell a lot, and no posted photo of one by you. sad, BSODs we call those blue screens of ***** XP love to do that. (even with Bill Gates on stage) LOL BSOD are hard. Im sure it says 2 words, HALT and DUMP ! here is a list of causes.... for sure 14year old relics (legacy junk)

1. the main battery inside is bad or shorted, remove it run AC , does it, wow, it does, problem solved in minutes flat.
2. the Inverter is shorted (CCFL card) and bom, BSOD
3. bad RAM, BSOD XP fast , try 1 stick at a time.
4. Bad HDD< can corrupte files and XP BSODS in a blink !
5. any thing shorted, remove all usb devices yet?
6. remove extra ram. , unplug CD drive?

all techs know rule 1, is it hardware or software, (this is alway first after #1 above done) to do that we open the CD tray, insert our free LIVE LINUX CD and boot to linux wow it runs for hours ok, proving what, HARDWARE IS BAD if Linux fails its bad hardware (running period correct disk) if linux runs i next do a full HDD test, using the great linux program there to do that. or take that handy dandy, Compac (now HP) 3 disk install disks set and load disk one, does that run? ok even full restore. or does it show HDD errors.? oops HDD is bad. the BSODs are really what. it means the PC attempted to run and ******* instruction. in simple terms, it means a program is corrupted. or tried to do ******* things with memory. that is why test test the PC with a boot CD to see if the PC is ok. see? mr wifi real. sure this can short, but if it is removed and it still BSODs its not this card, its other cards, shorted. or not at all. cards. we call this mini-PCI slot card.

This machine ran Windows 95 making it an older Compaq. The following link describes how on older Compaqs bios was entered. On some machines, there was no hot key for entrance and another method was used. But try the F10, i. e. function key F10 at boot. http://www.pcguide.com/vb/showthread.php?56742-How-do-you-access-a-Compaq-laptop-BIOS

Try rebooting to see if that clears up the issue. Should. Does not mean it will not happen again if you repeat the operation that caused the BSOD. There is an issue with your OS and you might want to attempt a repair operation if possible

compaq presario SR5310F why down grade from dead, to super dead for 3 years now XP why do that? XP is a virus magnet. (hint 2, and glowing) your offical page is here. on real HP site, (we are not here) https://support.hp.com/us-en/product/Compaq-Presario-SR5300-Desktop-PC-series/3644727/model/3644732 click software click OS see what you get. ONLY VISTA support now I can make it work with 1/2days labor. but why do that? why ever use XP, USB only works 1/2 way with XP SP3 added and PLUG AND PLAY ON XP IS DEAD, making other 1/2 dead. for ever an ever. if pain is your game, here is how. drivers. ( my PCI sniffer lets me find (if possible at all) Any driver on earth. (unless reading every chip lid is fun....) http://www.pcdied.com/Drivers.html

Might be worth trying the device manager to see if a driver is lurking on the internet somewhere. If not it should be possible to update your sound card. Inserting a card into an expansion slot should switch off any integrated audio.

this is an english only forum. google translate works, try that? here. THE PENTIUM 4 PROCESSOR CAN BE CHANGED FOR A PENTIUM D PLATE (929 REV 0G S25 THE PC IS A COMPAQ DC 7100. I HAVE CHANGED THE PROCESSOR FOR ANOTHER FIRST OTHER PENTIUM 4 OF 3,200 GHZ BUT IT DOES NOT WORK WELL PROVE WITH A PENTIM D AND I WILL NOT AND NOTHING I HAVE TRIED TO PUT YOURSELF AND I REMEMBER THINGS TO RARE AND DO NOT START. why do that, what caused you to start playing with processors. you can NOT just throw in any processor you want the HP documents long gone now on this old old relic PC tells you what processors this PC supports. usually just a one class and just 5 or so in a class. if you google your PC you find these words : Intel 5 Series (Pentium 4) see that 5 there, only this series works and only those allowed by HP in that series work. no boot why not put the PC back as you found it. the post, why does not PC not boot and know its not the processor 99.99% of the time . step 1 is power, do you have full DC power out of you PSU 2 yes, does the monitor test out ok on other PC. 3: does the BIOS screens work. yes,yes and yes, means the HDD software is corrupted or or the HDD is dead. to test any HDD I use Knoppix live DVD to test it. i see this too there are 4 PCs with that model , the service tag shows p/n:: this code tells the helper what motherboard is there and what processors are used. ok i found the page that shows how to decode the p/n on service tag. old old lost book, see code 560 there, ? bingo. https://www.manualslib.com/manual/72042/Hp-Dc7100.html?page=4#manual

You didnt buy the HP media kit so only this is found.ok you luck out today, its 2008 machine 1 more year and its gonehere is the VISTA sound/audio driver.https://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers/selfservice/compaq-presario-v3700-notebook-pc-series/3629625/model/3636410why not look at HP first. ?

double posted why, read other post there is reason to do 2 posts, 1 problem ever. no lamps stated, ether,

never post personal data here, please. country is great, I applaud you, me in texas. I used to work for Philips Semi. so... state side long ago, intel before that for 7 years. but we need the Service tag model to know what you have. or all answers are wrong,. in most cases. (oops me wrong) only XP (newest) asks for F6 floppy, time to upgrade to w7. for sure. i guess you missed all that bad news in UK with the XP virus taking down the hospitals there. sad to watch we are below 1% XP now in usa and falling like rock. (not counting USA MIL) ITS DOS 3. right? the date is set in BIOS, easy, (me wrong hard takes a setup prog) but the BIOS CMOS NVRAM coin cell battery must be good and it bet you %100 its not. over 5 years no, 7-10 never good. the only floppies are found used, disks and drives there is a USB loopy drive sold, that works. if usb ports are there and work. is said PC for personal use,or for CNC mill. usage is important, in all cases. some are used as toy other on the net, others only for Word 95. the PC has drivers at the HP site, i can link you but only with the red arrow data on the tag below. btw: we are not HP. DOS 3? 6? what os, windows 95/98/w2k/xp/vista/w7/8/10, freedos, o/s2/ XP was the last to ask F6 at install. is that it? F6 is for drivers. not supported THEN. omg, i even repaired those long long ago, thanks for the memories. suit case PC, http://www.oldcomputers.net/compaqiii.html running DOS ! 3? wow, why are you doing this for a museum? 12 whole megaherz then, and 640k of ram Gill Bates said was plenty . we ran WORD STAR THEN !

w8000 a very old PC not supported by HP.windows 2000 support ended like 15 years ago..

old COMPAQ day legaL ( they meant valid,) if you read the service manual, on you old PC. from HP it shows like 50 keyboard for 50 countries. this forum you are on is USA forum based in PR. of CALIF. the keys for USA characters are valid. not others. a to z and simple punctuation. and zero to 9 and such. this is called (IT-101) a character set. or caps if the mood suits you. please type a service related question SR2129UK running Vista my guess running Spanish keyboard? with accent keys, not valid. use only pure English keys. (UK keys ok) be advised, i've nerver see the UK version of this PC.
