20 Most Recent Compaq Evo N610C Notebook - Page 7 Questions & Answers

I suggest that the notebook screen is switched off. Check along the Function keys for a Screen Symbol and then press Fn and the F key with the symbol. (It is F5 in my case).
Hope this helps.

More than likely you have a bad boot sector on your hard drive, there is little you can do without the operating system to re-install. if the computer has a floppy drive or you have a USB floppy drive you can use a Windows 98se disc and use fdisk to wipe the partition. There are several other disk utility programs that will accomplish this as well

Hi,
Please specify the problem, if you want to know how to change the ram on it you need to check the slots at the bottom of the laptop. If it is not there then you will find below the keypad.

Hopefully it helps.

Hi,
Assign static IP address , gateway of your modem and DNS of your service provider.

From what you say I presume you wish to put it back to when you bought it. If so, boot your computer and go into the Bios, select default settings.
Re boot your computer with your system disc in the DVD drive and when the menu asks whether you want to install a fres system and format, select that.
When your new system is installed, go to the manufacturers web site and down load the drivers for your computer then re boot it.
Install Office and any other periferal software that was supplied with the computer and there you have a system installed bare PC.

Sorry, there's no Memory Card slot on this laptop. You can check out the full specifications here (click here).

If you need further help, let me know.

Good luck.

Thanks for using FixYa.

The keyboard will most likely need to be replaced.

When you place your Windows XP Disk in the drive, ensure that as the Notebook starts to boot, the words "Press any key to boot from disc ..." is on the screen and then press any key. If you do not get that option choice, go into the Notebooks BIOS and set first boot option to CD or DVD, then try again.
If the system you have on the Notebook is newer than the verion of XP that you trying to install, the Notebook will default to the newer system. A real pain! so make it boot from the CD not the hard drive with the bios settings.

Hold down the shift key and press the minus (-) key - it's next to 0 (zero) on the top number line.

enter 3 time wrong password u will get a code send me code ill send u master password

Reinstall using only the recovery disk that came with the laptop when you bought it.

The hp web site says it doesnt but you can a buy a wifi dongle to connect to the router

The first thing to try would be to turn the brightness up on the screen. There should be a FN (or function) key on the keyboard, and an associated key (usually under one of the F keys, such as F6, F7 at the top of the keyboard, or on one of the keys) that has a brightness adjustment for both UP and DOWN (brighter and dimmer). Try holding down the function key and press the key that looks like it would indicate BRIGHTER, usually a circle with some lines coming out of it indicating glowing. I assume you may have already tried this so...

This indicates that the actual LCD / screen on the laptop's back-light has failed. You can try to shut down the computer, make sure it is off and then take out the battery from the bottom of the laptop. Leave it off for a good 30 - 90 seconds and then go ahead and put it back in. Try turning the unit back on. If the screen is still the same you will need to replace the screen, or replace the whole laptop.
Usually screens are quite expensive, and unless you have expertise at installing them, I wouldn't try to do it yourself. Most likely you will want to buy a new machine. The good news is that you can still sell this machine on ebay, just make sure you list it as having the back-light "burned out" or something to that effect.

my laptop does not record music or pictures onto the cd

The password exists to protect you, if a thief is in possesion of your computer, and wants to use it. So, there is no way to "bypass" it.

Find your original sales-receipt, to prove that you are the owner, and contact Compaq, and ask for Technical Support.

i dont see any integrated wireless in this notebooks specs. It was uncommon when these were manufactured. however you could likely find a wireless adapter that would fit in the expansion slot /multiport.
