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!

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.

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.
Cheers,
Burt

Go to Solution.

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.

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.

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/ati-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-HD-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

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.

Black screen Presario CQ62-219WM Clear CMOS jumper pins

About 2 years ago I bought my son the laptop for school from Walmart new. 6 months later, he brought it back to me from his Mom's and said it quit working. At that time, to check it out first, it booted to the HP screen only. Tried to get into the BIos with F2 but it was unsuccessful. Did the usual hard rested sequence with battery out,->unplug adapter-> Hold power button down 1 minute -> reboot with battery only and then with adapter plugged in. No change. Removing the RAM modules didn't make a difference. I replaced both Memory card to 2 GB X2 . Still wouldn't boot. Removed the HDD and replaced it with a known working drive from another 64 bit Wndows 7 OS and that didn't work. The original HDD is readable because it worked in the exchange. As a last resort, I built an Ubuntu live USB put that into the USB port on the presario (32 bit Ubuntu) and no success either. Can't reflash the BIOS. I decided that before I do anything more I would just take it back to Walmart as it was less than a year old and was directed to do so by HP (return it to where it was purchased). When I did, I was informed that because I was concerned of a motherboard problem, it was not covered under warranty and I was essentially stuck. I was recently unemployed so that was it. Went home, read some more and looked at the board and the capacitors visually and nothing grossly abnormal. I tried clearing the CMOS only by removing the battery and cold storing it for 24 hrs. Replaced it and still nothing. Read about the jumpers to CLRCMOS but I have looked on both sides of the board And there are no free pins, and nothing that Identifies anything to say clr CMOS or a variation of that. He wants to have his own back even though it has been a valuable learning tool. So .... Do you have a final suggestion other than go on eBay, buy a new board for $90, and quit trying to fix an unrepairable problem? He's going back to school and I still am out of work. Thank you in advance for any help you can give me.

There are no clear CMOS jumpers on the board. My best suggestion is to use one of the motherboard repair services on eBay. They can identify and repair defective chips on the board using advanced equipment. If you can remove the board and ship them just that, I have seen the service for as little as $70. Obviously you can handle removing the motherboard.

I have no affiliation with this person and there are several other similar ones on eBay. Most of the used motherboards you get on eBay have had a procedure like this done to them anyway.

Compaq Presario CQ62 DVD not working after Windows 7 automatic install of upgrades

The DVD in my Compaq CQ62 stopped working after Windows 7 automatically installed updates. The driver seems to be corrupted. When I open Device Manager, the DVD comes up as hp DVD RW AD-7701H SATA CdRom Device and the device status displays...A driver (service) for this device has been disabled. An alternate driver may be providing this functionality. (Code 32).. There are two drivers installed--cdrom.sys from Microsoft, File Version 6.1.7600.16385(win7_rtm.090713-1255) and PxHlpa64.sys File Version 2.03.32a from Sonic Solutions. If anyone knows the link to download the new driver or how to resolve this problem please let me know.

We are not sure what might have caused this issue. You may try removing the affected filter drivers and check. This has helped few.
To do this, follow these steps:
1. Click Start , type regedit in the Start Search box, and then click regedit in the Programs list.
If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type your password, or click Continue.
2. Locate, and then click the following registry subkey:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
Caution There can be many instances of the registry subkey that is mentioned in step 2. You must make sure that you are in the appropriate registry subkey before modifying the UpperFilters and the LowerFilters values. To verify that you are in the appropriate registry subkey, make sure that the Default data value is DVD/CD-ROM and the Class data value is CDROM.
3. In the right pane, right-click UpperFilters, and then click Delete.
4. Click Yes to confirm the removal of the UpperFilters registry entry.
5. In the right pane, right-click LowerFilters, and then click Delete.
6. Click Yes to confirm the removal of the LowerFilters registry entry.
7. Exit Registry Editor, and then restart the computer.
Note After you remove the UpperFilters registry entry and the LowerFilters registry entry, you may lose functionality in certain programs such as CD recording programs. In this scenario, you must reinstall any affected programs.

Compaq Presario CQ62 Fan runs constantly, at max speed during X11

I have tried to follow the instructions in the wiki for fancontrol, but lm_sensors doesn't seem to even recongnize the fan.
"sensors" output:http://hastebin.com/gorofawogi.hs
Also, the temperture sensor reading seems to be erroneous, as my laptop is running nothing close to 88°C .
Is there a fix to this? Or does my laptop just not support fancontrol?
Interestingly enough, this issue occured after I cleaned my fan out. Could this be related somehow?

I looked deeper into the wiki, and it seems that cpufreq and lm_tools have not been tested on my model of Compaq. The notion that it does not support fancontrol seems to be ever-looming.
