COMPAQ REPAIR FAQ:
Compaq
Presario 2570ea Motherboard The computer won't switch on or will crash
intermittently. Some video problems also require a motherboard repair
as most video chips are fixed to the system board. Our engineers
perform component level repairs on most Compaq motherboards. We can
replace resistors, capacitors, transistors and also work on the major
chips, such as the video chip, within your system. Our engineers have many years of experience
and know how to fix most systemboard faults.
Compaq
Presario 2570ea VGA Video Graphics
faults The computer starts up with dots or lines on the
bios or intro screen. At this level there is no other software loaded, so software problems are ruled out. Graphics are distorted, blocked or pixilated.
In some cases the system refuses to boot. Strange effects when
windows or mouse are moved on the screen. All these effects can be
caused by a faults related to the graphics chips. About 90% of
faults can be repaired, the rest are caused by damage to the
motherboard and impossible to repair. Our Advanced Video Repair
Technology enables us to restore full function to your laptop in
most cases. Manufacturers and their tech support may recommend

LCD Backlight & inverters The laptop switches on but the screen
remains dark. In some cases a faint image is visible on the Presario 2570ea
screen. This problem can be caused by a faulty Presario 2570ea fluorescent light,
inverter, video cable or a problem on the motherboard.
Backlights use very high voltages and it is easy to cause damage to
the system if they are not correctly handled and installed. Our
engineers can replace the backlight lamps in most TFT/LCD screens
including the new xbrite panels. We also have access to most backlight
inverters and cables. We can perform repairs on some very rare
inverters. It is very easy to destroy an expensive LCD/TFT when
removing/installing the CCFL. Our engineers are trained using broken
LCD panels before they can work on a customer's LCD/TFT unit.
Compaq
Presario 2570ea Keyboard Most Compaq keyboards are damaged by liquid
spills and general wear. We also repair keyboard connectors on the system
board.
Compaq
Presario 2570ea CPU problems Intel CPUs hardly ever go wrong, but are
very difficult to diagnose. Some will crash on rarely used
instructions and at certain temperatures. Unfortunately, hours of
testing can be in vain if the problem instruction isn't executed.
Most CPU failures are cause by BGA problems. Overclocking a Presario 2570ea CPU in a laptop is not recommended as the
cooling systems are designed to dissipate heat at normal speed.
Compaq
Presario 2570ea Hinge Some laptops have a problem with the hinge
becoming stiff. It becomes difficult to open and close the laptop lid.

Hard Drive Faulty hard drives can cause data loss and
stop your laptop from booting into Windows. We can replace faulty hard
drive and attempt to recover your data. After installing the new
drive, our engineers perform a thorough disk test to ensure that your
data is as secure as possible.
Compaq
Presario 2570ea Software and Drivers Viruses and improper shutdowns can lead to
the Windows XP operating system or the file system becoming corrupted.
We can recover your data and install a fresh operating system or
drivers to prevent crashes. We can also recover your data from totally
dead or unusable computers.
Secondhand
or Used COMPAQ Presario 2570ea
Buying a used laptop is a risk. You may find that the battery
does not accept a full charge or the laptop is unstable. Most
secondhand sellers consider any laptop that boots into Windows as a
working machine, even if it keeps crashing every five minutes. We
strongly advise customers against buying used laptops with a
DOA warranty as some faults are not immediately apparent.
BIOS
update COMPAQ Presario 2570ea
Many motherboards are destroyed by incomplete or corrupted BIOS
updates. A BIOS update should only be performed if it is critically
important. Don't do a BIOS update just for the sake of having the latest
version on your computer. Ensure that your computer is stable before
performing a BIOS update. Run diagnostics to check memory, hard
drive, keyboard and video graphics. In
99% of cases a failed bios update will make the computer totally unusable
so take a backup of your software and data too. Make sure that you
have a good connection to your mains adapter and that the battery is
fully charged.
