Can anyone tell me why a keyboard on the CQ50
Are you sure that you have inserted the strip connector correctly into the motherboard connector? If not fully inserted before closing the pressure clips it may not connect properly.

Will not turn on
Please test the power adapter with a multmeter and make sure it is working properly. If it is not it will not charge the battery and needs to be replaced.

Turn on wireless
on some compaq laptops the wireless switch is on the side of the laptop! look for a button! also some laptops have a wireless symbol on one of the f keys if you find the symbol on the f keys then you click on the fn and the f key with the wireless symbol at the same time!! that should work!

My compute will not turn on
The laptop might be overheating, sometimes when the laptop cant get any ventilation it shuts down and will not properly power up till the temperature issues are delt with.
But you usually get at least a few seconds of power before it shuts down again, so it may not be that, sounds a bit more like the CPU is dead and will need replaced.

It doesnt charge, i cant tell if its the charger
If you have a multi-meter, you can find out if the charger is giving voltage. On the "block" portion of the charger, it should have the output voltage (i.e., Output: 15VDC 1.3A). Using the multi-meter, look to see if you are getting 15V DC power
If you are getting power, the problem is with your main board. Also, inspect where the connector goes into the back of the unit...does the connector go in loosely? If so, it's likely the mainboard.

Compaq presario CQ50 106CA.
Have you tried turning it on and selecting the function key combination for the screen? For example some screens use FN+F7, hold down the Function key and F7 to cycle between presentation modes.

How do you get to your built in webcam in a compaq laptop?
Open your My Computer and at the bottom part of the windows you will find a USB Video Device icon. Double click on it and it will activate your built-in camera.
Now use a video chatting program like skype or Yahoo Messenger with your webcam.
