SOURCE: Copy of windows setup cd

Hi,
If you want to get it legally, then go to a store and get it.
If you want to get it illegally, then download some torrent file and burn it in a CD. make it a bootable CD. but you cannot be assured that you will get the product key in all the torrents. try various torrents and get the right one.


~regards,
Jegan

SOURCE: Changing Vista to XP Pro on a Compaq Presario SR2180NX Desktop PC

SR2180NX has the Vista 32Bit OS from HP. The restore partition will always put Vista 32Bit back on if you use it. Windows XP can only be put on from scratch and I have done it while I still have Vista installed. One problem: there are no XP drivers under SR2180NX webpages. Do your research on the parts that are installed in the 2180 and any other HP machines that have the Windows XP operating system as the OEM OS. But First, check the Intel Site for the 945 chipset drivers (include the SouthBridge, too) under XP. Get them downloaded to a CD and burn the rest of the drivers you find for XP on the same CD. This way, you will have them ready when you are performing the down-grade to windows xp. After you are done with the XP install, you will still have access to the files & work you had done while in Vista. The Vista files are still readable. You might want to consider getting the Windows 7 Professional (not basic) available October 22, 2009. AND you will still have to get the Intel Downloads for Win7 any way, so why not make it a project and make it last for a few years. XP Support stops in 2014.

SOURCE: I HAVE NO SOUND DRIVER

Go to Compaqs web site and download the Win7 driver for your sound firmware and install it. Ensure you specify either 32 or 64bit. Check your OS for the specification.
Hope that solves your problem.

Compaq presario s5100nx very slow windows xp

1GB of RAM is not enough to run Windows XP and the programs you installed efficiently. Removing unnecessary programs should make more memory available for necessary programs but it will never be fast. Crucial.com is a great resource for memory upgrades but I don't think you should invest in a computer that old with a completely unsecure and unsupported operating system (XP).

I hope this helps.

Compaq Presario S5100NX Desktop PC 1 LONG BEEP AT START UP I GET THE COMPAQ LOGO BUT NOTHING ELSE. THANKS FOR ANY HELP.

One long beep usually means a memory or RAM error..
Try removing the ram sticks and then simply replacing them back into the slots..
The contacts in the RAM slots are self cleaning to taking the sticks out and putting them straight back is usually enough to correct this issue..
Just make sure you touch part of the metal chassis of the tower BEFORE you touch anything else.
This will discharge any static charge you may have on your body..

Sound

Click Start, Settings, Control Panel, then double click the "Sounds and Audio Devices" icon. Make sure the Mute box isn't checked and the Volume bar is at least 1/2 way on the Volume tab. Also click the Speaker Volume tab and adjust the sound there as well if needed. You might also want to check the "Place volume icon in the taskbar" icon so you can easily adjust the sound settings next time.
