    CD problem w/ Compaq Armada 7400 Laptop

    Locked

    by steven booth ·

    I have a Compaq Armada 7400 that absolutely refused to recognize the CD-ROM within the laptop. Now I have try just about everything I can think of, I?ve tried different CD drives (as well as DVD drives), resetting the CMOS, installing a new ROMpaqsfrom Compaq. Nothing works. I know the slot work due to the fact that the floppy works. Also the CD-ROM is recognized while it is in the docking station. Does anyone have any suggestions that I could try? HELP

      I had the same problem on a Dell laptop. It was a bad system board. My advice is to call Compaq tech support (1.800.652.6672) and see if it is still under warranty and have it replaced…..

        Thank you very much, I received another answer on resetting the BIOS, but that didn’t work so I’m inclind to agree with you on this.
