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.

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.

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.
You can find service manual here

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?

My presario cq56 219wm didn't come with a camera. where can i order one?

I am finding more and more need for having a built in camera. Where do I go to get the camera module to install in my Compaq Presario CQ56 219WM?

Compaq presario cq56 115dx will not power on blinking lights, not a disk drive problem

I own two identical Compaq Presario CQ56 115-DX, and the one I use every day stopped powering on. Shows blinking caps lock light and orange WIFI light does not turn blue to turn on. The fan powers on, but the screen doesn't come on at all. I tried hard resetting several times and it didn't work. I swapped the hard drive of the malfunctioning CQ56 to the other one that was working normally, and it works OK normally. No hard disk corruption or problems.
Any idea how to fix this problem laptop?

Hey @rajpodn ,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand you're looking for info on swapping out the CPU in your notebook.
You will find everything you need here: Compaq Presario CQ56 Notebook PC - Maintenance and Service Guide. The instructions you need start on page 75. Keep in mind that the CPU itself may not be the issue, it could be the socket on the motherboard preventing the notebook from reading the CPU, so even replacing the CPU may not work, as you may need a replacement motherboard. I do not suggest replacing the motherboard as doing so requires HP Proprietary software to reinstall the Service-ID necessary for reinstalling Windows.
*Caution - If you do install the new CPU be careful with the thermal paste. A small pea sized amount should be more than enough. Put the paste in the exact center and carefully spread so there is a fine layer almost to the edge of the CPU. Remember that the heatsink will press very firmly onto the CPU and spread the paste more and you don't want any squishing out as this can cause electrical shorts if the paste has a high metal content.
The part you will want is: AMD V140 processor (2.3 GHz, 512-MB, L2 cache, 1066 MHz, 3.2 GT/s)—singlecore 25 W. The part number for this is: 616333-001.
You can order the CPU directly from HP here: HP Part Surfer, but you may be able to find it cheaper on sites like eBay, Amazon, or Newegg.
Hopefully this covers everything you're after!

Compaq Presario CQ56-115DX Problems

Hello,
I have a Compaq Presario CQ56-115DX Laptop. It is still under warranty. Within the last week the power of the laptop has been messed up. When I have the laptop unplugged, which I don't very often, the laptop shuts down after an hour without any warning. So I plug back in the laptop and it still shows anywhere for 40-70 percent battery left. Why is it doing this?
Thanks

Hi,
First of all, shut down the notebook, unplug the AC Adapter, remove the battery, and then hold down the Power button for a full minute.
Now, plug in the AC Adapter without the battery inserted, start the notebook, open windows Control Panel, open Device Manager, expand the entry for Batteries, right click on and the Microsoft ACPI Compliant Control Method Battery and select Uninstall - do not uninstall anything else here. When the uninstall is complete, shut the notebook down, unplug the AC Adapter, re-insert the battery and then start the PC on just the battery. Windows will automatically reinstall the driver - leave Windows running for a few minutes. Shut down the PC again. Now plug in the AC Adapter ( with the battery still inserted ) and start the notebook to see if this has helped the issue at all.
If the above has not helped, download and run the stand-alone battery test utility available on the page below and see if this reports any problems with your battery.
http://h20239.www2.hp.com/techcenter/battery/battery_ts.htm
If this reports a problem with the battery ( or even if it doesn't, but the problem is still occuring ), contact HP and arrange to have the battery replaced/notebook repaired under warranty.
If you live in the US, contact HP Here.
If you are in another part of the world, start Here.

Fan issue - Compaq Presario CQ56-106SA

Product : Compaq Presario CQ56-106SA
OS : Windows 7 Home Premium
Issue: Fan error (90b)
Greetings all ,
First off I am very familiar with computer systems and component as I work on them fairly regularly however I am currently unsure to what I should do from this point.
I got the notebook laptop as a present a few years ago and its seen better days however I recenty decided to use it again however when I started the laptop I got the fan error (90b) so I took a look at the fan and it wasnt spining hense the error , so I checked the HP support site and looked at the error and also did a google search to see if anyone else had fixed it.
So I opened the laptop up (since it was out of warranty anyways) and I got to the fan and removed the heatsink and fan component and I opened that up and there was a buildup of dust obviously needless to say i cleaned it up and put the component back together and placed it back in and ensured everything was connected correctly and started up the computer however the fan still isnt spining and I still keep the getting the error.
So my question is , If I took out the component is there a way of testing to see if there is any fault with the fan itself? (eg. putting a small amount of power through it to see if the fan spins?)
Or should I just replace the fan and heatsink component completely and hope that the issue doesnt persist?
Any help would be appreciated , just to have someone elses opinion?

Hi
As you have mentioned that the Fan is not spinning the issue is with Fan & also replacing the heatsink apply terminal paste and that should take care of the issue. I have also seen sometimes issue might be with the Systemboard connector which is bad might cause this issue.
This is very difficult to guess
Let us know how it goes!
