    Question Problems with an Older Laptop

    I have a Compaq Presario V5000, it will power on but I only hear the fan. I get no boot screen or any kind of screen and the dvd drive acts like it is trying to load a disk that is not there.

    Unable to Connect to Internet

    The Bitdefender Firewall was the issue. I have always run a firewall besides Windows and up until this point I have not had any issues.

    My VGA port won't work on my newly built computer

    Once you turn the computer on press F2 and/or delete and this should get you into the bios. Also in an earlier thread you stated the processor was not supported, some support on board video (vga on the board) and some require a video card.
