Its all depends on your bios version but basically you need to press F12 or F2 When it starts up. Its the key to access your boot / configuration manager. you can choose your first booting device from the boot menu.

    ok this did not help- now when i turn it on, it ask to start normally or repair--when i click start normal it says boot mgr is missing to then insert windows installation disc. i insert the disc, hit enter and it looks like its going through the motions of booting but brings me back to start normal or repair---the boot mgr is missing

SOURCE: THE SOUND ON MY COMPAQ PRESARIO CQ56 HAS STOPPED

chrisojari,

Hello, Welcome to Fixya.com, We are here to help you with your sound issues.

First check and see if its muted there is a tray icon to your right hand side by the clock on you windows operating system. Make sure its not mute by clicking on it (right mouse click) then go to playback devices.

Make sure there is no mute button pressed anywhere on the system for example some HP's have a mute button on the keyboard area.

Please update me and let me know if you have any issues.

SOURCE: where does the sim go

Hi tefordgal12,
I see you have a SIM that you want to use on your compaq system, I checked in you system specs online and it does not show that it has a 3g modem on it on the issue.

  • On all Laptops the 3g modem can be found inside the system, if you remove the battery you may see a slot for a sim card in the battery bay.
  • All Laptops have the 3g modem in the battery but not all Laptops have a 3g modem installed on it some may have sim slots but does not have the 3g modem installed in it
  • Call HP regarding this concern since they can answer our question most accurately if you give them the serial number of your Compaq Laptop.

I hope that the information I provided helps.
Thanks, have a great day.

Compaq cq-56 wont turn on

Have you cleaned the Laptop thoroughly? Have you tried another Cord/Charger with the EXACT same power specs as the original? It may require opening the Laptop to examine/replace the Thermal Paste on the CPU and GPU? Have you done ANY updates recently? Graphics adapter? Have you tried a boot to safe mode, is it possible? Can you get to the BIOS setup? OR it may be a component on the Mobo, hard to say from here.

My boot up is really slow on my Compaq Presario CQ56. How can I get it back to original speed?

You have an issue with your hard disk drive. Back up your data at once. Create the recovery disks from recovery manager in program files list. Replace the drive and run the factory restore. Install an antivirus and transfer your data back.
