I have a 700 GR Desktop. It is a fine PC but support seems poor. Sandra diagnostics say I have an Intel D915GSE motherboard. Gateway has a picture but does not state the Intel model. My Gateway Restore DVD has the wrong motherboard documentation. It is for a D915GAV/D915GAG motherboard....

Just had to post this. The last few days I have been having trouble with the DVD burner that came with my new Gateway 7200xl that I bought at Christmastime. Anyway, I thought there may be some updates to the drivers that would possibly make this thing work as it is suppose to so I contacted online...

This post is somewhat off-topic, but since Gateway owns eMachines now, perhaps not too far. I have a friend who just bought an eMachines desktop computer. It's running XP Home SP2, and Outlook Express 6 SP2 is his email program. The machine does not have Microsoft Word installed, hence there is...

Can anyone recommend a good, SAFE registry cleaner for my Gateway Performance? Thanks.

Usually I can ignore this error and I do, but every so often when this error comes up, nothing loads and I have...

Has anyone else on this NG bought a new Gateway since Jan. 1, 2005? I just got one and Gateway is not including the system CDs anymore. My WinXP OS is defective. It doesn't retain my desktop settings, unlike my other Gateways with WinXP which keep our desktop settings just fine. Al

Hi guys, I know I am off topic but...I bought a 5.1 550 creative sound thingy a couple of years ago. When I migrated boxes and operating systems from 98se to XP Pro I found that only three of my speakers work. Worse yet, the old CD would not reinstall in XP Pro And further worst yet ( bummer ) I...

I have a Gateway G6-450 computer that came preinstalled with Windows 98 First Edition. A couple of years ago, I bought the Windows Millennium Upgrade CD-ROM and installed that operating system. During the installation, I had to insert the Windows 98 CD-ROM to verify that I qualified for this...

....sell to ******s? I have never seen a ****** use a computer. I think it would make for a good reality TV show. Maybe put a monkey up against a ****** and see who can figure out how to use it quicker.

Hello group, The fingerprint sensor of my Gateway laptop 450RGH sometimes stops to sense fingerprint, after using the computer for several hours. In such cases, I have to reboot the computer to make the sensor work again. The software for it is "Protector Suite QL, Ver. 5.1.0, Build 682." Thanks...

I'm looking atbuying a Belkin USB 2 PCI card with 4 external USB connectors (and 1 internal) for a Gateway E-3400 rinning Win98 SE. This card requries a PCI 2.1 slot. Does anyone know if this Gateway system (I would guess 1999 vintage) supports PCI 2.1? Thanks! Scott
