Have a compaq cq61 319wm, blinking blue lights

i have a compaq cq61-319wm. when i press the power botton there is no boot or post. just blinking blue lights at the caps lock and the number lock. i have switched the ram around and even used other ram. any is appreciated.

I think you have to begin to think of this in terms of a hardware issue. If it reads CDs but not DVDs, then it is not a driver thing but a bad laser. There is a separate laser for CD and DVD functions and one can easily go bad, requiring replacement of the drive.

  • Blinking Blue Light

    I know that a blinking Green light tells me that an e-mail is coming in among other things. Now, since updating the OS to 4.0.3, I am getting a blinking Blue light in addition to the Green light (not at the same time.) I have no idea what this blinking blue light means.
    Solved!

    Hello Everyone,
    As promised we stated once we had tested this further we would give you more. here is the information directly from our Engineering team.
    From the factory, the tablet only supports green notification. However, the LED light inside the tablet is a multi-colored LED,
    With the release of Android 4.0.3 many 3rd party applications can take advantage of the multicolored LED inside of our tablet.
    None of the Sony Applications use any other Color but green at this time
    As the previous poster has stated Facebook is one of the applications that use blue.
    This application has a setting to use phone LED notification. If you wish to disable blue for this setting uncheck the phone LED notification within the Facebook app settings.
    Here are instructions on how to do so if you wish:
    1. Launch Facebook App
    2. Tap Option or Menu
    3. Tap Settings
    4. Tap on Phone LED

    Hey man, thx a lot for this! I was tryin to turn on this ps4 for 1 hour and the same ***** safe modę again and again. This 'trick' with PS button works!

    This error code I now understand is due to the ***** hard disks in these systems failing, my console is rendered useless by this bluntly down to the fact that the Operating system cant launch as it is stored on the HDD,my console is now useless, I cant get through to SONY CUSTOMER SUPPORT, it is rubbish when compared to other countries that have online chat support, I cant backup anything on the disk as it is corrupt so I am spitting my dummy out of the pram and not investing anymore of my hard earned cash into consoles I was massively let down by microsofts XBOX 360 ended up going through 4 of them, and now this lump of shite loaded with cheap partS, I will get a new replacment off PONY eventually and sell it and make a loss because I paid over £400 for my bundle last november to which it has now dropped in price.im going to invest it into a custom built gaming pc that I Have control over what parts go into it.RANT OVER enjoy your day people. in a nutshell if you get this error CE-34305-5  your cheap nasty hard drive that PONY installed has kicked it.

  • Volume buttons on a Compaq CQ61-313US

    My volume buttons do not work properly on me laptop. I have a Compaq CQ61-313US. I just got this laptop yesterday, December 1st. When I click on the plus, minus or mute, it does nothing. I have to change the volume with the volume icon in the taskbar. I do not know how to correct this problem. The volume controls are on the numeric keypad on this laptop. Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    You need to hold the function (fn) key down whilst using the +, - or * keys on the keypad. 
    This should fix your problem.

    I have a Samsung Network Extender, model SCS-2U01, and for the past two weeks, the SYS light has gone from solid blue to a blinking red light, disconnecting me from my business calls. In reading the forums, it was mentioned that Verizon had to reset something on their end to fix the issue. Would you be able to confirm if something needs to be reset to fix the issue? Thank you!

    First, try the normal stuff: power cycle your modem, router, and NE allowing time for each component to stabilize before turning on the next in sequence modem > router > NE. If necessary, try resetting your modem and router. If it still doesn’t work verify it is listed in MyVerizon and then calling Verizon Wireless Customer Service at (800) 922-0204. Good luck!

  • Toshiba Canvio 1.5TB Portable Hard Drive Blue Light just keeps blinking

    I have a Toshiba Canvio HDTC615XK3B1 1.5TB Portable Hard Drive and its been working fine so far. This morning I tried to access some files and when I plugged it in, the harddrive made the usual virbation but the blue light goes from solid to rapidly blinking. My computer (macbook) doesnt recognize it either. Ive tried it on multiple computers too. Please help!!! 

    Unfortunately, the drive might might be failing unfortunately, especially considering it's not working on multiple computers. You could try to reformat it, but that would cause you to lose your data. Alternatively, you could make a warranty claim.

  • HP Mediasmart Server EX490 stopped booting; health light blinks blue forever

    My server recently stopped responding on the network.  I power-cycled it to reboot, but it never came back up.  The network conection light goes solid blue (and the server shows up in the router's list of clients), but the health indicator continues to blink blue indefinitely (as long as 36 hours at one point) and I can't view any files or remote desktop in.
    This has continued through a variety of reboots.  I attempted to use System Recovery to restore the system, but was never able to get the server to enter recovery mode (health indicator turning violet).  I tried using recovery anyway just in case (both with a direct ethernet connection and over the network), but it always failed on step 3.
    I wondered if the boot disk had died, but I removed it and hooked it up to another computer and was able to successfully view files, so it's at least not totally dead.
    I'd appreciate any further suggestions on things I could try to get it back up and running.

    I have the same problem ..... Will not boot up, two 1t drives, I removed the drives tested to see if data was on.. yes... has dat.   System will not boot to get it. I can not reinstall software either. HELP !

  • Compaq Presario F767NR caps lock,scroll,touch pad blue light not working

    Hi,
    I have a Compaq Presario F767NR. It downgrade it to xp. All my drivers are ok. But caps lock,scroll,touch pad blue light not working though its function is ok.
    I think led is ok. I find that for the scroll lock when i press fn+num lk then the blue light works fine.

    I have the same problem and I think it started when I downloaded the SP2 for the Windows Vista. So probably it is not a problem of the laptop. I have an HP Pavilion dv9500 notebook PC.

    I have an Airport Extreme Base Station and have recently upgraded to Mountain Lion. Now airport utility won't work with my base station so I bought a Time Capsule.

    The Utility transferred all of the AE's settings, so I still have to change the password, which leaves me with only 2 other questions, I think:
    1)  I assume it's just a matter of using the Utility, entering a stronger password and checking for it to be remembered in Keychain Access.  But do I have to  change the password for each individual unit-- the TC, the Extreme and both Expresses-- or will changing it just for the TC alone work for the entire network?
    Resetting the password you will need to do for each device... the utility cannot even see those old units.
    So you will have to do it for each one.. think it through.. because as you change passwords the others will lose connection.. so start from the express which are wireless extending .. change those first.. and go back up the chain.. as each one changes it will drop off the network.. until you reach extreme and change that. Then you might need to reboot the whole network to get everything talking again. If something goes wrong.. just pluck that one out of the mix and plug in ethernet.. reset and redo the setup. That is my preferred method anyway.. do everything in isolation one by one. By ethernet and then nothing goes wrong.
    2)  Who's the treasonous SOB who spilled the beans to you about the ICBM in my back yard?!?
    N.Korean hackers.
    [Edit] Whoops-- one more question:  I want to partition the TC's disk, but Disk Utility doesn't see it.  What do I need to do?
    You cannot partition a network disk. And apple provided no tools for it in the TC itself. You can pull the disk out and partition it but that voids your warranty. (although done with care who is to know).
    Look at Q3 here.

    Mixing TM and data on the TC is worth planning carefully. They don't necessarily sit happily together.

  • Have a blinking yellow light on airport express.  Reset... Still Blinking.  What do I do?

    Airport Express has blinking yellow light.  Reset.  Still blinking yellow.  All other apple products, Apple TV, Mac's connecting fine to Airport Extreme.
    Had to reset AE a few months ago and have not used this airport extreme since that. Suspect is a simple fix but not doing something right.  Anyone help?

    A persistent, flashing amber light indicates that any of the several potential conditions may require your attention:
    The base station has not yet been configured because it is new, or the reset switch has been set.
    You have selected a security configuration that is not recommended.
    One of several other conditions, such as a disconnected Ethernet cable or invalid IP address has been detected.
    (ref: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305101)
    If you run the AirPort Utility, it will show an amber circle on the summary page next to the area(s) causing the problem. Click on this amber circle and it should provide an explanation.
