you do have a prt sc button it is located as part of the FN buttons Look for your Insert button there should be some blue letters along with the word insert nwo when you want to take a screen shot press Ctrl + fn + insert, when you are ready to paste the image press ctrl V
2 :
Or install MWsnap from: http://www.mirekw.com/
3 :
If you do not have a PRINT SCREEN button, then I would recommend a program like ZapGrab. Google ZapGrab and you will find many sites offering free downloads of this tiny 50kb application that works great.
4 :
Download a free application like X-Shot - it is very user-friendly and hides in your system tray until you need to use it.

How do I get my Compaq laptop to have louder sound?

How do I get my Compaq laptop to have louder sound?
The sound is nowhere near the volume I want when it's on max. I like to blast music.

Simplest answer is to get external speakers. USB-Powered Speakers CAN amplify sound, but usually not to the extent you seem to want. So your best bet just get some regular speakers that plug into the wall with adjustable volume levels.
2 :
Well, I used to have a Compaq laptop but I did not very much like it. One of the big problems was the problems your having now. So I got my Lenovo very good laptop and just came out. Well mine did. I fixed my problem. If you already maxed out the sound in the windows sound equalizer (accesible from control panel, sound), then that`s probably all that the laptop speakers can take. Laptop speakers are known to be not loud so if you need more volume you should hook up some external speakers to it and maybe an amplifier. Also make sure that there isn`t any volume button on the laptop that may be turned down. Hope that helped!

If the problem first started after the memory upgrade, the first thing I'd try is removing and re-seating the memory module(s). The memory may not be installed correctly. If that doesn't help, I'd try going back to the 512 meg configuration. If doing that works, that would indicate a problem with the new RAM.

Compaq F730US Laptop

Does the Compaq F730US laptop come with a Vista installation CD?
Other laptops have a Vista installation CD that come along with them. However, the Compaq F730US laptop does not come with a Vista CD. Does anyone with a similar laptop get the Vista CD?

I has an HP desktop with Windows XP, it did not come with a CD with XP, I had to burn my own off a program that was on the computer. And HP bought compaq so i figure yours will be the same
2 :
If you have a computer, i would not suggest Vista, i dont realy like Vista because it works weird. just thought i would suggest that. :)
3 :
It depends on who sold you the computer. most computer dealers are giving Vista away with their systems. Its not compulsary and depends on the dealer.

I have the same laptop, the Compaq F730US. It did not come with the Vista CD either. Most companies are not sending out new systems with the OS Cd's. They come with a seperate partition in the hard drive, which will have the operating system in its original state, as it was when purchased. So if you want to do a new install of the OS, you would do it through that. However, it is always better to make a backup CD of the OS. The HP total care advisor which pops up when you start your laptop, will allow you to do that.
