Why wont my compaq computer plug into a tv?

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.

When using F4 on my Compaq Presario laptop, pictures of my computer screen and project shows, what am I doing wrong?

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

Hp 8510w usb

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..

Compaq Presario ,C 501NR/CEL

I suspect that file is malware. If you can download an a/v program to anther computer then install it on CD or USB drive, you can run that program and remove any malware. Restoring the system to a date prior tho the problem can work too.

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

I have a compaq presario cq50-104ca, it will not start up, the windows home vista premium starts by looping back to the safe mode options but will not allow any selection, what can I do?

thats the silly hp loop back deal (and has the F11 key active) omg its old . 2008 but HP supports it. even on w7 (facts) good luck with VISTA Microsoft shut down all support on VISTA, you do know that and what that means, right? cq50-104ca if the PC will not boot, it resets over and over (reboots) it just means the OS is dead, nothing more. that means the HDD is bad, in some cases:
  • HDD bad, test it?
  • do the recovery? do startup file fixes?
  • do full recovery.
  • Upgrade to w7 like you should have done back jan2017?
  • ever seem you service book yet, its free, see F11 now.
  • read F11, in the book for full recovery
  • if the HDD is bad (or was) F11 too will be missing, gone!
  • if F11 is gone, then only new install disks work, fresh.
  • or from ISO to USB mem stick installed. if HDD is ok.
now the book you cant find. and was there all along, at real HP why ask fixya and not HP forum? the book is here. open it,press Ctrl+F(find) and find F11 and thar she be, HP magical F11. (seen 2006 to NOW) http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c01572022
