Can you overclock a compaq presario CQ62-219WM laptop?

Is there a way to overclock my Compaq Presario CQ62-219WM? I really need a few more GHz...

There is no way to overclock in hardware as with a desktop. There may be software overclocking options, visit www.overclock.net but any overclocking of a laptop is ill-advised and darn near impossible, anyway. The cooling system is built to work at stock speeds and canot be improved very much. If you want a faster computer, sell the one you have and buy a new one. If you want to try to game on the system you have it is a lost cause. The problem is not the CPU it is the GPU, which cannot be upgraded in any way as it is soldered to the motherboard.

  • Turning off HotKeys on Compaq Presario CQ62-219WM

    In my opinion, HotKeys are the most useless and annoying "feature" that has ever been implimented on a computer. I have had this one for over 3 months now, but still have not figured out how to turn off these pesky keys.
    Please help,
    Thanks in advance!

  • Echo on my Win7 Compaq Presario CQ62-231NR

    I just bought a Compaq Presario CQ62-231NR Laptop running Windows 7.  The sound has a weird echo on it.  Does anybody know how to turn off that effect?
    Thanks in advance.

    This uses the AC97 audio chip, apparently, (or compatible to) and uses the Realtek sound manager (usually soundman.exe) to configure it. You should be able to double click on the volume control icon in your taskbar (lower right hand corner, looks like a speaker) and go into the advanced options to play with that. Or just find the Realtek Sound Manager, either or.

  • I have a Compaq Presario CQ62-213AX but i can't get 5.1 surround over HDMI. How can i get this?

    My Compaq Presario CQ62-213AX should be able to output 5.1 surround over HDMI but in 'supported formats' only stereo is listed.
    This computer has a ATI Mobility Radeon™ HD 5430 and according to the specs,
    http://www.amd.com/us/products/notebook/graphics/a​ti-mobility-hd-5400/Pages/hd-5430-specs.aspx
    and here...
    "A special feature of the HD 5000 series is its ability to transmit HD audio formats (like Dolby True HD or DTS HD Master Audio) with up to 8 channels and 192 KHz / 24 Bit over HDMI 1.3a."
    http://www.notebookcheck.net/ATI-Mobility-Radeon-H​D-5430.23702.0.html
    it should work.
    My other HP laptop (DV7) is doing this fine so my system setup is OK.
    I have tried a full factory reset and have fully updated my system but it still doesn't work.
    Please tell me what i need to do to get it to work.
    Thanks,
    Tina.

    I can try-dunno how much help I'll be, though
    go here for Realtek drivers for surround sound
    http://www.realtek.com.tw/products/productsView.aspx?Langid=1&PFid=37&Level=5&Co nn=4&ProdID=144
    try this: go to Windows Sound, then playback devices, then click on speakers icon (should have realtek as default). Click on that, and click configure
    if realtek has a sound manager, try clicking on that, and a config dialog might appear
    sorry can't be much more help than that

  • Compaq Presario CQ62 laptop does not see SD card

    I have a Compaq Presario CQ62 laptop (Windows 7 64bit) that has a built in media card reader that has never worked.
    When I insert the SD card it makes the "USB Beep Up sound" that says it sees the card - but when I go to MY COMPUTER, there is no device listed for the SD card.  How do I read and write to an SD card with this laptop?

    I have done that.
    In DEVICE MANAGER I can see the SD Card show up under "Disk Drives" when the SD card is inserted, and disappear when it is removed.
    Under Storage>Disk Management the SD card shows up as drive 1 (main drive is drive 0) but no drive letter. 
    When I right-click on the SD card Drive 1 and try to change to a drive letter, I get an error message and it will not let me.  It will not let me format either. 
    The driver is from microsoft and is old - 6/21/2006. I did some google searching and read that a driver update would fix the issue. I uninstalled the card reader driver, got a new driver from HP and installed it, and when I inserted the SD card it loaded up the old driver...ugh.

  • Compaq Presario CQ56-219WM keyboard frequently misses letters when I am typing

    When I am typing on my Compaq Presario CQ56-219WM I frequently miss letters and spaces.  I have a USB keyboard plugged in, but the missing letters happens on both the laptop's keyboard and the USB keyboard.  I did not notice this issue happening before I installed a Plugable USB 2.0 Universal Laptop Docking Station.  However, I am a bit baffled since this problem happens even when the docking station is not connected and I am just using the integrated notebook keyboard.   
    I use Windows 7 Home Premium. 
    Would someone be able to tell me what to do, if anything, to resolve this issue?  It's really frustrating to have to constantly spell check to try and catch the errors!

    Hi MrsJP. Try updating the BIOS in your notebook. Go to this link http://goo.gl/rk8CV and select which version of Windows 7 you are using and click next. It will display all downloads available for your notebook, including the BIOS update.
    Here http://goo.gl/wTZr6 is a document that will hopefully answer any questions about finding and updating/installing your BIOS.
    Please let me know if this fixes your issue or if you need anything else.

  • Does a Compaq Presario CQ56-219WM have a webcam?

    My Compaq Presario CQ56-219WM seems to have a place for a webcam, the manual says there is a webcam there (in select models) and the device drivers claim I have a "virtual" webcam.
    So do I have a webcam or not?

    According to the specs for your notebook, no.

  • Bios password started showing up on a presario cq56 -219wm laptop

    I am working on a Presario CQ56-219wm which suddenly started asking for a bios pasword (Enter Administrator Password).  If I hit enter 3 times, it give me the code of 82026917.  I know this is a motherboard fault causing this, can some one please give me the code to get into this so I can reset the password in bios?  Appreciate any one's help in advance.

    Alright I am working on the same exact laptop (Compaq Presario CQ56-219WM) and I am also trying to get into the BIOS and it is saying the same thing (Enter Administrator Password) I don't have a password set up on this and I am the only administrator. After 3 times of guessing it then says (System Disabled 53546280) What do I do?

  • Compaq Presario CQ61-424SA Laptop - eSATA/USB combo port does not allow eSATA connection

    Hi,
    I recently purchased an external HDD with eSATA connection for use with my Compaq Presario CQ61-424SA laptop.
    The specification on the laptop states it has a eSATA/USB combo port however there doesn't appear to be one. On closer inspection there is 2 USB ports on the right hand side of the laptop (which work fine with USB devices) and one on the left which is slightly wider than the other 2 (which also works fine with USB devices). However when trying to connect an eSATA cable to the port it does not fit and on closer inspection it does not look like the conventional eSATA/USB combo ports.
    Does anyone know if this laptop was spec'd incorrectly or does indeed have an eSATA/USB combo port.
    The cable I'm using was supplied with the external HDD I brought with connections as shown in this link.. http://www.comesource.com/storeweb/images/cable%20esata%20to%20esata.jpg
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Hi, I am having the same problem with the "e-sata/usb shared port" , which does not look like a normal e-sata port, and the e-sata connector won't fit in it.
    Can anybody help us?

  • Compaq Presario CQ50-110US Laptop

    I  have the same mother board problem with my Compaq Presario CQ50-110US Laptop.  HP's Customer Service is very disappointing.
    My laptop is 1.5 years old, 6 months out of warranty.  My first call to HP was unfortunately useless.  Told too bad.  Motherboard is about $400 to replace.  I emailed customer service asking for help with the situation.  I asked if they would split the cost of the repair with me, or offer me a discount to purchase a new one.  My case was supposed to be escalated to a Case Manager that would contact me with a few days.  After 5 days, I re-emailed because I had not been contacted. It took a full week before a Case Manager called me.  Again, nothing they can do.
    Despite the fact that the sticker on my laptop says, "Built to Last", I found their responses very disappointing.  I asked if there was anything they would do to "keep me as a customer?"  Again, they will do nothing.
    I explained also that I will be buying a new laptop, a new computer for my current business and another computer system with in the next 6 months for another new business. In addition, my brother-in-law had bought the same lap top as mine based on my recommendation.  Again, nothing..no response or no help.
    Since HP is not willing to make any attempt at all to keep my as a customer, I will be purchasing a new lap top very soon made by DELL.  I will also not buy any more HP Products for personal or business use.  This is not based on my defective lap top, but on HP's poor customer service and willingness to keep a customer.
    My case # was 7501314351 

    connect an external display to test the video . Power it up and see what it does.
    Consider performing a hard reset.
    Remove the battery and unplug the DC power adapter.
    press and hold the power button for more than fifteen seconds.
    plug in the DC power adapter (leave the battery out for now)
    press the power button
    regards,
    erico

  • Compaq Presario CQ56-219WM Webcam Module Cable Included?

    Hello,
    I recently purchased the Webcam Module part for my Compaq Pressario CQ56-219WM as instructed here. My laptop has the exact same bezel as pictured there. Before I open up my laptop I was wondering if the cable is already included inside. Do I need to purchase the Display Cable Kit?

    The Webcam module (Part#:626656-001) is hardware part which you can order from HP or elsewhere and install by yourself. It is (7) shown in picture below.
