Using a different computer, go to compaq's website and download the drivers and save them onto a cd or USB stick.
2 :
You can't download anything without internet access! Get a friend to download and copy/burn to removable media, disk/flash drive.

What do you mean that your internet won't work?

You can go to your local library to use their computer to download needed drivers.

Even if your an administrator, I think it would still lag. Better upgrade your RAM. Or you could clean out the unnecessary files in your computer.

If it were me, I'd go with the Lenovo for sure.

compaq sucks

uhm.. i sell lenovo, dell, and HP to corporate and enterprise companies everyday... i can tell 100% that lenovo is going down the drain in quality.. they have cut back so much this year... HP or dell is prefered

Compaq is aimed at a cheaper price range ($400+) which means cheaper quality parts (computer breaks easily, more often and usually costs more to repair in the end). Lenovo seems to be more of a business line of notebooks, from what I've come across anyway. HP has some really nice laptops starting out from $500-$600. They are usually very good quality - just don't expect help from their tech support.

How do I identify the serial number of a HP Compaq laptop battery?
I want to buy a new battery for my laptop. My dad said I should get the serial number and give it to him. But there are so many numbers on the battery, which is the serial number? And if it is not the serial number that I need in order to purchase a new battery what am I to look for and give to my dad?

You can also buy a new battery according to your laptop model. Just as me,my laptop battery not charge last month,i just purchase HP Pavilion DV4 battery from one laptop battery store (http://www.discount-battery.net/hp-pavilion-dv4.htm) according to my laptop model HP Pavilion DV4,as the same,you can search your laptop model like this:HP Compaq XXXX battery, no need to know the serial number.Hope it will be useful for you.
