Presario SR5050NX wireless upgrade

That depends on your PSU. What kind is it, how much wattage does it output, does it have enough cables to support that many devices, etc.

If it has enough cables to attach all of the hardware you have with no splitters than you are most likely ok. If you are not sure, a standard HDD uses anywhere from 0.5 watts to 12 watts of power depending on brand, make, model, and power saving features.

Hello
well, you need 2 things

1) Wireless antenna in your Presario, or lan cable.
2) internet access wifi.
3) of course, knowledge on how to connect to wifi network, with your passcode and username.

Are you sure you really need a bios upgrade? I've worked on older computers that have NEVER had a bios upgrade. Ar you having other problems with it, a virus maybe? Can you give us something more to go on to help you?

Have you done ANY updates or upgrades? take a look at HP Support page: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/documentSubCategory?tmp_task=solveCategory&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&product=3377255

Not an driver problem. Your front USB ports cable not connected with motherboard. Connect the cable in USB jack in the motherboard. Some time no cable inside the cabinet, in case buy new cable and connect it.

1. Check whether it happens same for other discs too.
2. If yes then your drive is faulty and you can do nothing other than replacing the drive and if no then that only particular is corrupted.

Hi,

1. Have you made any changes to the computer prior to this issue?

The issue you're facing could be related to drivers and could be resolved by updating the display drivers.
2. To confirm this run your system low resolution mode.

• Press and hold the F8 key as your computer starts.
• On the Advanced Boot Options screen, use the arrow keys to highlight Enable low-resolution video, and then press Enter.

If the problem doesn't reappear in low-resolution mode, then the issue is driver related. Then you download display driver from your graphics card vendor site.

Thank You For Using FIXYA

You can give it a shot. i just read on someone else doing that.

Hi, what you will need is a PCMCIA wireless card or usb wireless stick, these can purchased pretty cheaply these days from the likes of ebay or your local computer shop should be able to sort you out. PCMCIA would be the one I would choose as these just slot into an empty bay and once installed, can be left there. Hope this helps, if not give me a shout and I'll see what else I can do. Si :)
