Compaq Deskpro ENS P866 512 RAM 36GB HDD - Issues with Streaming.

Issues with Streaming Movies. Running Windows XP Professional 5.1 with all Essential and Non-Essential Updates taken. I can go to a website one day and it works for a few hous fne, and the next day I can be in it 30 seconds and thenlose mouse. Sometimes it wil be temporary (ie 1 minute) other times it doesnt come back and I have to FORCE closure of the PC and ggo through he pain of the Blue Screen. The loss of the mouse is due to the CPU running at 100%. So far tried:- Increasing the paging range to 1500-2500. Cleaned everything. Updated all drivers Updated all latest versions of software/apps. Checked Add-ons but nothing to turn off or on. Run Registry Cleaner and Defragmented it Check Disk, Repaired, Defragmented and Optimised. Clean all Cache/History (daily) Removed non-essential start-up programs. The increase of paging has helped the most and it happens less, but it still happens.

LOL 512MB is mighty low for streaming movies. And a 36GB Hard Drive is low too. Have you checked to see how much space you have left on the hard drive? Click Start/My Computer and then Right Click on the Local Disk C Drive and select Properties. It will show you a Pie Chart of how much space you've used and how much is free. I bet your disk space is pretty low.

SOURCE: COMPAQ PRESARIO DESKTOP PC SR1215IL.

tricky!! oh hi im Dyanne.. a totally unresponsive black screen can be th result of failure of th LCD or LCD inverter.( a specialized piece of electronics that energize th screen) to rule out th failure of th video display adapter or circuitry, try plugging in an external monitor..a standard pc monitor.. attached direct to th lappy. if it works, (as i susopect) th motherboard and video display are both working ok and its th LCD which is at fault. this can sometimes be repaired by a competent specialist. good luck xx

SOURCE: red blinking light when on my compaq deskpro en pc

Probably your power supply. They are pretty cheap to replace. If it's plugged into a power bar then try plugging it directly into a wall socket just to make sure it isn't your power supply.

My pc is crawling too slow

Hi,

As you understand the RAM is too little compared to latest hardwares available. Understanding that you have windows and antivirus loaded I would suggest you to uninstall the antiviurs first. Take it out completely. As days pass the antivirus tends to eat more memorey and CPU usage as more and more updates keep loading in. What I would suggest is to completely format the system and keep usiing it for some days to see if the speed is better. If yes then you need to look for a lighter antivirus .

Thanks

Power on and immediately (3-9 sec) off on a compaq 6400 laptop running windows xp. LED shows as charging when plugged in. Same problem on battery power alone

Try to remove the battery and hook up to the powersupply directly without the battery. If it goes on well plugin your battery again and try once again. If problem persists check your RAM

Upgrade

Hi!

Two things to do then, either buy a new bigger disk and replace the on on your HP...OR buy an external disk and connect it via the USB.

Just remeber that you need to reinstall everythin on that HP if you replace the disk on it with another one

Good luck

Compaq Deskpro EN contant restarting when attempting to load XP

Last time this happened to me, I had to reformat and reinstall windows. I tried all those modes, and I even tried the windows repair. None of that worked, I just did a complete new install. All of the data will be lost, if you do this.

My advice, if you need some of the data on that hard drive, you need to hook the drive up to another computer and backup what you need.

Or buy another hard drive, install windows on the new drive. Now slave the old and backup the data.
