My built in mouse pad

If still under warranty suggest have it repaired. Most computers out of warranty also have out of date software and are not worth spending funds on. Suggest upgrade to a new machine.

How do i restat my laptop 610 compaq it has been stacked on touchpad?

restat? stacked? i have no idea these words? elaborate please . tell what you do right and it does, wrong (a story) my wild guess is the touch pad is failing and no usb mouse attached,(hand held mouse) that? what OS is this , XP? The mouse pad can be bad. so can the mouse pad driver be corrupted , missing or wrong one installed. start by telling the helper what OS, click the (CP) control panel, click system' the OS you run is presented to you there, in words. windows what. then CP (again, then click device manager) under "Mice and other pointing devices." see the mouse pad there, the driver there must not be missing or red or yellow marks ore UNKNOWN. there are more tests and actions, but I stop here, or get it repaired in a PC repair shop. (captain obvious sorry)

My compaq presari0 v5000 is in sleep mode and will not wake up

The problem's with the video card or the vga cord; the monitor is just reacting to no signal from the graphics card. Check that the pins aren't bent. If they are, you can possibly straighten them once. The second time, they may snap off. Since the KB just flashes once, it could be the power supply, or the motherboard. If the motherboard has any caps that are swollen on top or leaking, you might need a new motherboard.

My Compaq Presario F700 won't turn on. I press the

dead PC, this failure and all cures have been posted here 100s of times. even 1000 times. ive done 1500 now dead pc's.
  • what are you asking, ?
  • how to fix it
  • or what's wrong from morbid curiosity?
  • or want to learn how to fix PC,
  • or who can (any PC repair shop on earth, yes)
  • id bet no store fixes 11 year old PC, store? repair shops sure.
the book on your PC shows it is 11 years old now. 2007 made. most PC this old are dead an parked in an attic, most. you skipped step 1. and is... remove the dead shorted many battery, non last 11 years. not one. (if im wrong we do a guinness world records interview) lol so remove it and see if it works now. step 2 is the screen, all old PCs 2010 or older (most then all) have CCFL lamps that all died long ago and the screen is black forever now, all do that every one. if USED every day. if the screen never shows text ever ? then the back lamp is dead. (battery out, AC pack connected) yes> black.> then we do the flash light test next, if you see data now, then the CCFL are dead. 99% tubes bad or 1% inverter that runs them dead. in 2010 this ended with LED, your PC is NOT LED. http://pcdied.com/monitors.html#flashlighttest if the flash light test fails, NO DATA there. then 2007 PC had the solderball from H3LL failures. GPU grapics chip from Nvidia are bad. the kiss of ***** here the fix is 10x more that the PC is worth. value dead is $5 this old. http://pcdied.com/monitors.html#solderball_hell and for sure a new coin cell most are dead at 11 years. and can cause all the above. read page 44, its childs play fix. http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c01295900

Hi I need help in fixing Compaq Presario V2665us

a very very old Compaq. right clicking the trackpad not the external usb mouse ???? you broke the cable to the track pad. switch set. working on any laptop takes skills, to not do more damage that you fix, even a pro makes this error. all do. the cables are FRAIL, so are the sockets for them frail and break so very easy. use a real USB mouse. or go back inside and fix your damage. its just a switch set and cables. the pad part has its own electronics and its own cable and drivers. if lucky only putting cable back fixes it. do you know how to lock and unlock laptop ribbon connector locks and not damage them. this is a first things first set of skills. ask. (there are 3 kinds, what you have id have to look) each kind uses different skills to work them. and not wreck them.

I have compaq presario m2000,my laptop speaker

Send the computer back for service if its in Warranty. Try to use the Audio out on the side of the computer. Plug any external speaker into the port. If the sound you hear is the same as what comes rom the speakers then the sound module on the motherboard is defective. If the sound is normal, then the problem is in the wiring to the internal speakers.

The wifi light remains red, but it still connects, is this a fault brewing ?ps,it's a compaq laptop

no PC stated, (model)? no OS stated, windows what.? that means the drivers are wrong for this PC and its unstated OS. you do know compaqs go back to 2001 and hp portables back to 1984, we can not guess PC models, and they are not all the same. or means corrupted OS, or virus infected or worse. the word compaq means little and the name ended in 2013

Why won't laptop connect to wireless internet? Wifi is working, another computer in home is fine

are you at home or Starbuck? location matters. so, the compaq must be setup correctly. your router broadcasts the SSID name seen by you on all devices, see that on the Compaq (y/n) then you must pick wep. or wpa, or wpa2 encyption mode. as set in your router, we cant see inside you router only you can then set the passphrase to what you router wants. is this XP, windows does the wifi chip look ok in device manager? Is XP infected.? with malware as all are now. never post about computers lacking what operating system you have, or answers will be wrong, even all answers.

An AT%T what? what modem exactly so they did not set it up for you ? no way they would not do that after all its' their modem and you run it from them as a service. does your unstated PC use Ethernet cable Cat5/6 to the At&T modem or router? that is the fast way to get internet fastest, most easy, and just plugs in. your post lacks all key facts, sorry.

Compaq Presario 2190US PC Notebook,ram

did you try each stick one at time, in bank 0 first? one can be bad. that is a very old laptop old DDR ram. (mostly not new but new old stock) no link where you bought your ram , it's name or its full part-numbers from your source, not stated. finding memory that works right on old laptops, is not easy. unless luck happens. first of all only HP can help you, they designed it (engineered ) and built it. The problems is manifold. (lots of things to get wrong) first is the chips set in your PC, and then comes BIOS,support. If BIOS does not recognize the serial ID SEEN , it can fail. no service tag stated fully, by you, hint that P/N there on that tags tells any HP expert what's inside, (some pc have intel others with AMD processors, and use totally different memory types. bingo this PC does. it's not like changing knob on a toaster, not at all, memory is complex and more so back in the dark ages. of 2002,. 16 long years ago. (line 1,3, and 5 matter big time) http://pcdied.com/tag_service1.jpg besides speeds, PC2100 DDR 266MHz ! your holds only 2 sticks, new PC had 1x 256MB here is list of restrictions common on i5 processors ( wild guess) density rules both chip and count. front and back side has memory chips some only allow 1side. the voltage has to match or buy dual voltages sticks. this PC has no value on the street at all,zip. why invest cash in this old dog? sorry, but why>? why not go to GOODWILL store, buy 10 year newer PC for $20 even go to year 2010 , and give you and it a future.. and run w7 or newer ! that has support now. also the video GPU may use some of this ram so if you use the wrong RAM the GPU goes dead. (no graphics to the old LCD) most of these PC long ago burned out the CCLF back lamps. most go dead in 5 years used, or 10 light usage. one more reason to get rid of it. No good OS runs on 1GB,safely. here are the model numbers of your old PC from, the offical HP parts surfer page, sorry that are not all the same. HP did offer this new. 512MB, 266MHz, 200-pin, PC2100 SO-DIMM (Small Outline Dual In-Line Memory Module) 317436-001 DA728AV, DA728AVR, DB954A, DB954AR, DC583A, DC583AR, DC584A, DC584AR, DC735A, DC735AR, DC959A, DC959AR, DC960A, DC961A, DC961AR, DG054A, DG250AV, DK587A, DK587AR, DK588A, DK588AR, DK589A, DK589AR, DM373AV, DM373AVR, DM393AV, DM393AVR, DM726A, DM726AR, DM745A, DM745AR, DM747A, DM747AR VG430AV, VG432AV, VG434AV, VG436AV, VV451AV, WA763UA, WA763UAR, WA778UA, WA778UAR, WA779UA, WA779UAR, WA781UA, WA781UAR, WA782UA, WA782UAR, WA783UA, WA783UAR, WA784UA, WA784UAR, WA785UA, WA785UAR, WA786UA, WA786UAR, WA788UA, WA788UAR, WA789UA, WA789UAR, WA791UA, WA791UAR, WC226PA, WC227PA, WF604PA, WF605PA, WF606PA, WF606PAR, WF650PA, WG367PA, WH200UA, WH200UAR, WH201UA, WH201UAR, WH202UA, WH202UAR, WH203UA, WH203UAR, WH204UA, WH204UAR, WH770AV, WH772AV, WH830LA, WH830LAR, WJ369PA, WJ842PA, WJ843PA, WK881PA, WK882PA, WK888PA, WK889PA, WK890PA, WK891PA, WK892PA, WK892PAR, WK893PA, WK922PA, WK923PA, WK924PA, WK925PA, WK926PA, WK927PA, WK928PA, WK929PA, WK930PA, WK934PA, WL033LA, WP636PA, WP637PA, WP638PA, WP689PA, WP690PA, WP691PA, WP694PA, WP695PA, WR644PA, WR645PA, WV465LA, WV465LAR some processors used above.
