Media player

if it is the only process that freezes up you should re-install your "ripping" software. If the whole computer freezes up you need more ram or need to free up some memory. You may have too much going on when ripping.

You stated an issue about playing/viewing AVI files on your computer?
I would suggest to go ahead and download an AVI file converter(w/c you can search via google or download via Filehippo.com)or get an AVI viewer/Player
(e.g. VLC etc./can also be searched/downloaded via gooogle.com or FileHippo.com)

Hope This Helps.

Which video files will Compaq DVD Burner burn to a DVD

A dvd burner will burn anything you tell it to burn, the things is you need certain programs to see what the extension was that you burnt.

EX- if you burn a DIVX file, windows media player won't see it, but it will see a WMP file.

The most important thing is the burning software, makes it easy to burn boot, ISO files, video.

But like I said, a DVD burner will burn anything you tell it to burn.

Trouble playing videos

well first of all i advise you to install windows xp on it because 98 is really passed out and wont function the way xp and vista do.
usually when playing a video or audio file and shows curruption this means the file formats ur playing are not supported on the aplication your using.
why dont you try to update your aplication ( windows media player, xing player or whatever ur using) or install a different one.

Dvd player can't play blue ray disk

If you have an earlier model Compaq, it most likely a DVD ROM player. Check the printing on the drive tray, if it says DVD ROM then it cannot play Blu ray disks.

Compaq Presario 700

There might be a PC-Card sound card that supports 5.1 or 7.1 sound. Your system as it is won't support it. There might even be a USB sound card.

Error message System Disabled code 70876817 on Compaq Presario CQ57. What do I do?

older Compaq day, wow.
the C57 has many numbers in suffix, 57 is not just one PC. ok.
why not read the service tag first and tell the full model number first. 2011 year , is not too old just 2 years before all compaqs ended, for ever.
or google that code.
here I will for you., and zip nada
so you did not tell the story, you push the power button
with main battery removed, (big bat out ,yah they SHORT)
and push power for 10 seconds and release power.
1: fan silent, it must not be, this is first.
2: screen dead, no 70876817, POST code text?
3: bios hot keys dead.
4: Bios screens dead.?
5: windows login screen missing? if it is even windows at all?

no beeps
no flashing LED codes? repeating endless.

There is no PCL/PNP I/O Config in the AMI BIOS of Compaq ILIPL-LC. ASUSTeK (Lancaster8) How do I use the LPT/COM Port? The current version is 5.18, but it's hard to find the top BIOS UPDATE File.

you lost the case to it, it was , or buy ***** motherboard?
- Compaq Presario SR5130NX !!! 12 years old I think. 2007
what are you doing , ?
why need any RS232 COM1 port or relic LPT 25pin port
can you tell why first? and this does not exist here.
(sure with add-in cards or USB dongles on any PC)

that PC is old, Compaq ran for many years and HP killed it 2013. ONLY HP.com support it today, ok?
I see you reading the mobo numbers top center
desktop OLD. and top CPU is.
Core 2 Duo E4x00 with Dual Core technology (Conroe) up to E4400
relic.
2GB max ram. total.
gma950. no intel support now.

why think this card mobo has COM1 port, there is none
nor LPT line printer port, for years.

HP ended support on the PC long ago.
all they have is , echo of past , light.
