| 435203 | 2006-03-03 17:42:00 | Don't use the Gateway CD> Use an actual Windows CD and format it again. | pctek (84) | ||

| 435206 | 2006-03-03 22:48:00 | Seems to me that the Gateway CD will simply install the incorrect motherboard drivers, perpetuating the problem. I'd beg, steal, borrow or (preferably) buy a kosher XP CD and load the OS from that. If you have to borrow, you might ease your conscience a little by remembering you have a valid license for the Gateway installation. You will still need the reg key, but that should be on the side of your computer. Cheers Billy 8-{) |

| 435207 | 2006-03-04 00:15:00 | Unless you're unlucky and the gateway key is locked to their CD (I know HP does this) However, there might be a way to rip the gateway disc to ISO and exchange the drivers, then reburn (never done this but it MAY be possible) |
