Hi, I was just wondering how to network my desktop Compaq Presario SR1810NX with my Compaq Presario F700 laptop. Desktop has Windows XP Home as OS and laptop has Vista

You can get all the specs from here: Compaq Presario SR1810NX Desktop PC Product Specifications

1plug in monitor 2.right click desktop go to properties (on XP) or screen resolution (on 7 or vista) you should see two boxes labeled one and 2 double click 2 that's you monitor...on xp in the properties window go to settings tab to find that option, if it does not show up reset your computer with external monitor plugged in and repeat process if necessary if that doesn't work you need to update driver for your graphics card/chip

Here is the audio driver for XP operating system

You have to download XP drivers from the manufacturer's website. This normally happens because your harware was designed for the new OS(Vista).

Just go to hp.com and search for the model of your Laptop.
