Persario sr5350f crashed and I can't find a start up disk. But need it to reboot the computer

Try booting up in the safe mode. You either have a virus or more likely a bad sector on the hard drive. If you need the startup disk go to HP support website and you can order a replacement

Trouble connecting to Internet after trying to

V5015v what OS< ? must be XP why post liking this key fact. XP is a virus magnet, XP will never strop doing that. its a dead OS. for 3years. now. iE8 only runs on XP with SP2 sp 3 loaded. IE7 is dangerous, , run Firefix v55+ and end the IE saga of doom. cleaning off infections on XP is near impossilbe. reload it. better upgrade to W7 like everyone else has. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_Explorer_version_history XP has over 700 Exploits !!! and many will never ever be patched, by MS, ever. XP is the bottom blue line here , right side. http://gs.statcounter.com/windows-version-market-share/desktop/united-states-of-america see the red list here. (its not good to keep XP) http://www.pcdied.com/XP-sux-sg.html best is to put Linux Ubuntu newest free OS on it. only 1 exploit and patched.

How to get off safe mode

never post passwords in a public forum. no OS stated but of window 10 safemode is totally different now. google that, and its like asked 1million + times and same for answers. sounds like your PC is infected to me some PCs now, if the OS detects serious problems (corruption) it goes to safe mode automatically. my guess is that is what happened. because going INTO safe mode is more tricky, no more F8 key magic in W10 so what OS< never post any PC questions lacking what OS you run. OPERATING SYSTEM.

Back light turns off and on hooked up to the charger at almost full charge what can i do to fix this kind of issue?

This could be a power issue. If the charger port on the computer. If it got to hot or bumped or something either port on the computer could have been damaged. The charger itself could be going bad. Also might even be a virus causing it to change the settings. Worse casethe backlight on the screen is failing.

Checking your display setting could help. Running virus scans could help. Might need to replace backlight and/or screen. Might just need to reinstall windows all together.

Webcam driver hp hd-2200

You will probably have to delete the driver from the driver property page. Then reboot the computer. Then make sure there's no driver listed. Then select up the driver. Select that you have the driver. Find a driver. Install.

Basically when i turn on

Compaq Presario V2310us laptop Booting any PC is progressive event. its old. (a museum piece) the HDD (hard disk drive) can be bad, we test that first if BIOS screens are ok, the HDD is next the last (after replacing that if bad ) load windows. is this XP the dead OS , no longer supported by MS or HP? THat>? that CD is it a HP disk or MS? or home made? we can not guess what media CD is in hand. does the F11 key work, (power on, hammer f11, to restore OS?) if not then go in to BIOS , tell BIOS to boot to CD. or the CD will seem dead. Once that is turned on, power on, and hammer (tap tap) space key, to boot to CD, (any key works but space is closest and big easy) those steps are need to boot any CD, (if real bootable CD is there) this LT is so old there is no sport now, XP too. why not upgrade? if the HDD is bad are you going to spend $50 on $5 PC? we test the HDD first btw. and clean out all that lint inside blocking fan/vents. getting to deeper screws takes longer drivers. or special bits on some brands, of PC. I thing (IIRC) the F10 key is BIOS hot key to enter BIOS no matter, ,it prompts you driving first 5 seconds of power on key hit. I bet the CD drive works OK, and that you have yet to discover BIOS The boot order must be CD first. or the BIOS may (will) get confused with the damage HDD BOOT.. see? as per below. changing this ORDER is quirky, each BIOS brand different this one is +- key or enter and change it. On some BIOS you have to enable the CD first, in BIOS CD boot [enabled] if your settings dont hold here, that means the COIN cell battery inside is dead.( normal this old) boot-order-old-kurwg5fbdbd44bpborjagtiv-3-0.gif More to test the CD we . boot any LINIUX CD live boot made. the see it work after the BIOS turned that boot feature on. it must be first in list or bad can happen, (fails to boot) F10 go to BOOT page in BIOS make CD first exit save BIOS power off power on , CD inserted (HP disks best for SURE) tap space bar ,like woodpeckerbird, tap tap tap and CD boots just like magic. (or boot LINUX live CD and test the HDD, that be my next step.)

Computer won't start - multiple symptoms. 1st

Serious issue. Problem could be corrupt CMOS, corrupted OS, bad hard drive, motherboard, or other peripheral. Try disconnecting everything except memory chips and see what happens. See if unit turns on; if so introduce one of the disconnected items one by one until you come across the situation where it does not work. Then you have identified the culprit.
