Hello, I'm new to repairing electronics. I enjoy fixing just about anything that needs to be fixed and learning how to fix. So far electronics has been a struggle for me but I'll get there.

hey everyone!

my name is Jake, I currently work for a small computer shop here in Washington. I usually work on customer machines (the worst quality HP laptops, primarily). Sometimes we get recycled machines that need some extra work, and Badcaps seems to be a good place to start when it comes to that. I'd like to get into board-level repairs and maybe some hardware hacking along the way

hope y'all are having a good day!!!

I am, actually was, a software/web developer some time ago. I like to do more on the hardware side. I hope to learn more from you all.

Hallo, I am just a simple guy and love to fix things at home. Those interest bring me to this forum as i keep on buying fixable items.
I got a laptop, named Compaq Presario CQ40 Notebook Pc. The problem is when I turn on the laptop without any internal hdd it directly boots into bios, in bios every thing work properly. But when I add internal hdd and turns it on, it shows Compaq logo and some other option at left corner to enter bios mode and then within few seconds it shutsdown automatically. If I select biso mode from this section, bios opens and detect every components properly like hdd, Ram etc. But when I chose hdd to boot windows it restarts and shows Compaq logo and then totally shutdown.
When I attach bootable pendrive at usb shutdown occurs. But when I add keyboard at usb there is no shutdown problem.
At bios settings I chose default bios settings but it's fruitless.
Thanks in advance.
Waiting for reply
