Re: Compaq Presario V6000 start-up problem

Run Memtest86+ to test the RAM. Also run HDD diagnostics. Try Hitachi Drive Fitness Test. Both of these utils run from CD drive is you d/load the ISO (or CD version) files for each.

In another computer, d/load the ISO files to your Desktop. Use Nero or ImgBurn to burn the image into a blank CD. If you are using ImgBurn, right-click on the ISO file and select 'Burn with ImgBurn'. You will need to boot from CD drive using the CDs.
