Compaq Presario SR1610NX won't turn off, and won't

The problem could be a hardware problem.
You can try removing the ram to see if it's faulty otherwise I am afraid you are unlucky because could be a motheroard problem so the only solution is to bring your laptop to repair service.

COMPAQ PRESARIO WON'T BOOT FROM CD

Hello, you are experiencing this because of the Boot priority setting in your bios. Your computer has been set to boot from your hard disk first and so it will never try to boot from a CD when it starts. There are 2 ways to fix this:
1. Go into your bios (usually by pressing F2, F10 or Delete key as your computer starts) and set the boot priority to check CD or optical drives first. Consult your PC manual if necessary.
2. Press F12 when your computer starts, this will bring up a menu to select boot options. Choose your CD drive.
Thanks for using FixYa

Hi, sounds to me that you are having a software problem. When you boot the laptop choose the Last know good configuration option to see if that will correct the problem.

Compaq notebook won't boot up

Hi

When you boot the computer back up go into Safe Mode and check to see if you can roll the computer back to the point before you installed the software.

If so this should work. If it works then run a virus scan, a defrag of the hard drive and cleans the temp files.

OR

You can do a diagnostic startup and uninstall Onecare. So once that it is uninstall ed it should be smooth sailing.

Here is a link for some startup / diagnostic software you could try after booting.

I hope this helps

Hi Chas,

sounds like you have a piece of hardware that has a bad driver. If you connected something recently, try disconnecting it and then start your computer. If it starts, then you will need to find the correct driver for it before you attempt to hook it back up again.

If that does not solve the problem, try unhooking all hardware, except for the hard drive with the operating system on it. If it starts normally, then you can turn your PC off and hook up one piece of hardware... start the PC... turn it off again... hook up another... start the PC... etc. until you find the hardware that is causing the problem.

If it does not start with only the operating system hard drive attached... then, the hard drive may be defect. You can take it out and put it in a USB casing and hook it up per USB to another PC... if you see the data on it, it should be ok (just in case, this would be a good time to backup any data on it that you may need). If you do not see the hard drive in Windows explorer then it is probably defect and you will need to purchase a new one.

Hope that helps
