Greetings, I would like some comments, impressions, and thoughts about the advantages or disadvantages of the larger LCD screens. The LCD screens are getting larger and I do not quite understand what advantage these larger screens have over the more "standard" 17" LCD screens being sold with...

Hi, A friend has a Gateway G6 - 350 . He want to connect a USB device. I've suggested to him that he open the case and look at the Motherboard for a 9 or 10 header. He cannot see if one exists. Anybody know if Gateway put usb on mobos without bringing them out to back panels ? TIA

My configuration: G6-450 PII, 384mb RAM, 2 x 10GB hard drives both NTFS, Windows XP Pro. Well, it's been a while since I posted here with a problem on my 1998 GW but I had a scare with the old boy and think it may be the beginning of the end. This started with a program I was running which froze...

Hi The other day my gf gave me her Gateway Solo 5300, 800MHz PIII laptop with 128MB to fix since it refused to work without the AC adaptor plugged in anymore.

I tried to do a PNP network setup a year back which really screwed everything up so bad that I had to do a complete restoration on one of the machines. Since then, I have gone broadband which means some new hardware has been added. I'm thinking I have all that I need to try to network the two...
