Compaq presario cq50-215nr Battery melted
I have a compaq that was runnig great then the battery section on windows vista had a red slash tru it.
I pulled the battery out and it has a burned in hole in it.
I think the battery shorted out
Any body else had this problem ?
Thanks I am a disabled vet and unable to afford a new battery
I don't know what your budget is so I shopped batteries for the CQ50 on amazon.
I found a genuine HP battery for about $50 shipped a good deal, its $130 on the HP site
There are plenty of real cheap knock off brands for under $20, but who knows what the quality is or if they will last very long before they die or catch fire.

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 7501314351connect 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 cq50, power.
A while ago, I had a problem with my laptop, caused by several updates. Suddenly, it stopped working, (battery was ruined), and I thought the power cord was the problem. So I bought a new one (according to the specifications of the previous one). And effectively, it worked. Nevertheless, after a few minutes, it shut down, and the light located next to the power cord entrance was blinking. I tried to turn it on again, but it was no use. The next day, I turned it on again, worked, and after a while shut down.
I opened it, the fan was relatively clean, and everything looked normal.
What do I do?
I could work without the battery before, so I do not think that's the problem.Hi @FermiEffect ,
Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. I have looked into your issue about your Compaq Presario 50 and issues with your AC adapter. What are the specs of the adapter you installed?
Yours is 65-W AC adapter and should not be a travel adapter.
Plug the power adapter directly into a functioning wall outlet. Do not plug it into a power strip, surge protector, or secondary power source as this could cause and issue.
Here is a link to troubleshoot the Ac adapter.
Hope this helps.
Thanks.

I am following this guide (http://www.insidemylaptop.com/remove-mot… and I skipped removing the memory, WIFI, and DVD. I don't want to do all that. Right now I am at the part where you take over the top cover but I can't get it off. Do I have to go through removing the memory, etc; ???

- 4 days left to answer.
Additional Details
I have to either replace it or clean it. I can't just take out the screws in the back (it doesn't look like they come out. I was trying to unscrew one for an hour.)
3 minutes agoIf you were having your appendix removed would you want the surgeon to skip a few steps? Follow the Service Manual would be my best advice, sir. I have not personally taken apart CQ50 but there are likely screws inside the memory compartment or under the optical drive that can only be reached by removing the memory, DVD drive, wifi card, etc. If you do not remove the wifi card and antennae leads the antenna will be in your way holding the top and bottom halves together.

Presario cq50-215nr corrupt bios
Last night I started up a bios upgrade and wasnt thinking and restarted the computer as it loged off and has shuting down a white screen came up and the computer wouldnt shut down so i turned it off manually by ejecting the battery. It cut off and i tried to turn it back on and now it lights around the keyboard will turn on, the CD DVD Drive will run for a few seconds and stop the screen will not turn on at all, it just remains black and the LED Lights dont turn on either. I have tried to start the bootblock to fix the bios using Fn+b, Fn+Esc, Windows Logo+b, Wndows Logo+Esc, I have tried a hard reset, and they both did nothing. If anyone can help thank you soo much in advance for any and all advise.
You can try to contact HP to see if they will be willing to help. You may need to send it in for repair if the boot block function is not working. If you know someone that can replace the BIOS chip, you can probably buy one on Ebay. I had aqstech.com do my dv6000 bios repair late lastyear.

Does anyone know how to tighten the hinges of a compaq presario cq50 laptop?
I've had my laptop a couple years and the screen has become a little loose. I just want to know if there are any guides out there about how to tighten the hinges (screws in there or whatever). I'm pretty tech savvy, don't feel afraid to use big words
What exactly is this "text divider"?
A graphic? If so what format?

Would this hard drive be compatible with a Compaq Presario CQ50-115NR?
I'm wondering if this hard drive would fit in and be compatible with my laptop:
http://www.wdc.com/en/products/products.asp?driveid=684
I'm not sure if this 12mm, 2.5 inch drive would fit in it or be compatible with it. I plan to purchase this one if it is indeed compatible and will fit.
Otherwise, if not, then can someone recommend another internal 750 GB SATA 3 Gb/s 8 MB Cache 5200 or 5400 hard drive for me that is just as good quality as Western Digital? Must be compatible and fit.
Thanks and much appreciation in advance.Hmm... Can no one help?

Its quite a project, documented here
http://www.insidemylaptop.com/remove-motherboard-from-compaq-presario-cq50-cq60-cq70-laptop/
DC jack cable assembly here, be sure your specific model is listed before ordering
http://www.cybertx.net/servlet/the-1917/DC-POWER-JACK-/Detail
Here is what most places sell, not sure it is an exact match and would require soldering skills

You might call HP Parts and see if they offer one for your specific model.

My Compaq presario CQ40 battery
Sir,
I got a Compaq presario CQ40 notebook. My battery displays ....plugged in, not charging....I guess reason is that my battery has dried up....so i would like to ask that is it a safe using that battery for few days .....or it has chances to explode.......its urgent . also i would like to know the price of replacement of new battery.
,Thank You
~ShubhamIf your power adapter is rated for 90Watts, then my next thought would be to try a different 12 cell battery from a different manufacturer. Most (if not all...) newer batteries have a small chip inside that relays information back to the charging circuit in your laptop. This is what "tells" your laptop charging percentage of the battery, battery status and how much to charge it. Either the new battery has a defective chip, or it's missing... At least thats what it sounds like to me.
You should have some type of guarantee from the website if battery is DOA from the start.
