QuickRestoring My Compaq Presario 7000 Computer (ft. My Intel Compaq)

[@BlindLibrary]

Oh, clucking Gosh? Is that the same #Compaq #Presario 7000 with the push-button fold-out CD door to store more compact disks in? And the Power button is just above that? (And the indicator light is then above the Power button)? That twas indeed my very first personal computer after finishing a #JawsForWindows training course at the Tampa LightHouse for the Blind. The course was supposed to be six weeks long, yet I swallowed the entire course in five days on the first week? So the other five weeks I just improvised and self-taught the entire time. Potentially much to everyone's anger, considering I'm the only real geek of the family. It honestly feels weird being the only one different.

Wow I’m very impressed, thanks for sharing this with me! Interesting that you used that exact same model computer in a training course, that seems very unheard of for me! And also, amazing that you were able to complete the course yourself just about five days in one week!

@@johnnycha Scary enough... Guess what OS was on it? Not Windows 2000, yet Windows ME!

I actually Did Not use this exact model at the TampaLightHouse. (Might've been a Dell if I remember right). And no, she was Not "Rolling in the Deep".

Aquí tienes: archive.org/details/CompaqQuickRestorePresario7000T Tenga en cuenta que, si bien este medio QuickRestore se creó específicamente para el modelo 7000T, al menos debería funcionar en todos los modelos 7000, independientemente de si tiene una CPU AMD o Intel. Por supuesto, es necesario tener instalados los controladores adecuados para obtener salidas de vídeo y audio adecuadas, etc., pero al final podría valer la pena.
