thanks but............. and is and Obsolete PC. at HP and MS. sr1902uk (England?)

1. what OS? drivers match a OS, XP?
2. sure some makers of mobo offer drivers that HP ended. sure.
3. so does the unstated NIC chip maker offer drivers but not for all OS in most cases.
4. The best way to work on old PC is run the PCI scanner(ask)
5. identify the chip maker and model (ven=x dev=z)
6. then we can get any driver, for any OS if the chip maker has one, and many dont. for newer OS. (and ther reverse)
7. Finding drivers for old PC is not easy, (for me sure) but for most, it's very hard and the risk of getting virus high.!!
8. ask how to do it, using the scanner , lacking HP support.

1) Is the battery charged? 2) If OK, plug in power cable and switch the power off and on at the socket. 3) Contact HP using the link below: https://support.hp.com/us-en/product/Compaq-Presario-CQ56-Notebook-PC-series/4247498/model/4308224

This depends what version of Windows you are running, if you are running an older version, say Windows Vista, there is a known bug with the ISATAP Adapter, essentially it is an IPv6 protocol, and is not needed. It should have no impact on the operation of your wireless card and is completely fine to use with the yield sign. It may have been there for some time before you noticed. The connectivity is most likely unrelated. If there is a yield sign next to you wireless adapter i would recommend re-installing the driver. You will need to search google for the driver and re-install. Sometimes manufacturers will have drivers on their websites and you simply enter you laptop model and year and select wireless card. Other times you will have to do a thorough search on google. Dont download any program that will search your computer for missing drivers, they are a scam. Try searching for your model number and Compaq. If you cant find exact model number of your laptop, a general Compaq driver may work. Can you still connect through wired ethernet cable? What do you mean by wont connect? Do you mean connect but there is no internet? Or you can see the wireless network but not connect? or you cant see any wireless networks at all? I have also run into issues where the saved network configuration is corrupted, and trying to join a network and enter the password is futile, even though I have previously joined and it is a trusted network. In this instance, I deleted all network settings and all saved configurations associated with this network and joined again from scratch, which rejoined first time.

I am assuming you are installing Windows 8 as this message is related to Secure boot on Windows 8. Secure Boot needs a System with UEFI supported BIOS and Secure Boot Enabled in the bios. Secure boot requires drivers to be signed and certified to run with Windows 8. Some of your hardware may not be supported because of this, and thus Windows will not boot, and shut down to prevent damage. See this Microsoft link for more details: Secure Boot Overview

Try re-installing the application, if this does not work then have a look at the publishers website for FAQ's and the forum, they can be very helpful.

You probably have to "tell" the TV to see the monitor. In other words, there might be a VCR/DVD/VGA(computer) setting/switch on the TV menu. The TV might not find the computer automatically like a monitor does. Good luck.

if your "F" function keys are a second function of the keys they are on there will be a key, usally located in the area of the lower left corner of your keyboard. If the "F" functions are in color, so will the key that activates them. The idea is that you hold down the Fn key while striking the selected "F" key

Open Device Manager and revert to the earlier drivers, or just delete the device. Restart the computer and try other drivers if you're not happy with the current drivers. Don't get updated drivers from Windows Update, always download from nVidia or whatever graphics card you have. HP should have drivers intended specifically for your notebook, which takes their setup into account..
