Hi Joey — how old is the Gateway laptop? Have you checked if it is compatible for windows upgrade? I think I bought it in early You might remember better than I do when Vista was common. I bought my Win7 in June Thanks for your input! You can use the software in the article above to run a free drivers scan — this will tell you the Drivers you need and you can then manually search for, download and install them.
My gateway computer is not connecting to the internet and I called my provider and it shows that my internet connection is good and it says the same on my computer they say it much be my computer that is outdated my model is ED Windows xp how do I fix this. I have a router and my iPhone is connected to the wifi. I have a ethenet cord from my router connect to the PC. When I scan for networks nothing not even my router shows up. I tryed to connect it but there was a error code.
Ok after windows upgraded itself to windows 10 it went into safe mode and i couldnt get out of that till it just went into sleep mode just dark screen. Now it turn on and i tried factory reset and now says in inaccessible boot drive. Keeps restarting itself same message. What can i do? I got a used gateway all in one desktop but it has a few drivers missing and it wont allow me to connect to the internet. It only shows connected to a broadband.
Please help im not looking forward to spend a whole lot of money on this issues. I recently downloaded your software and it did not help at all! I wish those drivers came via some sort of driver file rather than an exe So it might be the sound card I beleive applied the driver for a generic Card Reader driver that install of windows XP never worked again. Soooo it maybe for the ram or something, maybe duel processors?
GOT ME! Just don't go messing with it unless you know what it is, or you are ready to reinstall that windows XP and start all over again Though I didn't try "fixing" windows instalation or whatever.
Shit never works for me so i just started over. But thats all I know about the drivers thus far. I imagen that if I could get a specific list of what the hardware is in this computer, finding XP drivers shouldn't be all to hard. I've already formated to XP So I can't run any system information programs that will acuratily tell me what the hell is under the hood.
Feel free to help us windows XP wanting sons of guns out. Feeling board? Download a progam I recommend for any hardware computer questions you may have about your own computer called AIDA32, it's a free Non-threatining system information gatherer Tell me what the hell you have under the hood, I'm no pro or anything, but feel free to run that program if you have this laptop; the gateway MT and see if you can crack the code of getting XP drivers.
If I could dip you and your loved ones in gold and shower you with lavish gifts to help I would. Said you, you just get street creed and bragging rights. Lets do it team. Thanks for the advice! Rubican, I was about to refer you to the Slickdeals discussion about this laptop, but then I saw you were already there : I reinstalled Vista from the included disc, and it's definitely a lot faster without all the Gateway stuff clogging it up I can't really deal with a lot of computer downtime right now I bought this laptop to replace a suddenly broken one, so it's my primary pc , so I'm going to stick with Vista for the time being I'll keep an eye out as I'm still quite interested in leaving Vista for XP.
Luckily dvds seem to play fine through Nero Showtime, so I can live with that, though it's definitely aggravating. Anyway, good luck! I managed to get all the drivers except for the Media Card Reader. I used the Omega Radeon drivers for the Video Card. Wow Kloud, that's awesome! How is the laptop with XP?
Does it feel significantly faster? I have to admit I'm a bit conflicted, and for such shallow reasons Vista is undeniably cool looking, and I'll miss stuff like the new search, but I can't really argue with the stability and speed of XP, either.
Anyway, that's great work for sure! Thanks again. The speed seems good. A bit faster than Vista, probably because it doesn't work the GPU as hard. I actually set this up as a dual boot machine. I need XP at work to join a domain and for incompatible software, so finding the drivers wasn't an option.
It is also nice to be able to switch back to Vista if I want to use the Media Card slot. If you take the dual boot route, make sure you install XP before Vista, otherwise its a huge pain to fix the boot configuration.
I hope this helps. If you have any other questions I will monitor this page for a few more days. Okay, I have all the correct drivers now, no more 3rd party solutions. If you want I will zip them up nice and put them on my website to download. Email me at: xzxkloudxzx at hotmail dot com.
This is an opportune time to mention a "by design bug" included in Vista, when used in a dual boot situation. Vista will lose all saved System Restore points every time you boot into another operating system. It is something to do with Vista being unable to validate the consistency of the drive if XP which it does or another operating system which might writes to a drive monitored by Vista. Something to be aware of, and then you can adjust any recovery plan accordingly.
Just so you know you guys made me sign up to reply to you and this is probably going to be my only post After rongfully searching all sorts of ways i noticed that on the download page for mt, had 3 laptops listed for the bios it was campatible with. Then search keyword MX as it was one of the compatible ones.
All drivers work and everything is functional now as far as i know. I want you that you made me sign up to thank you. I am working on one of these laptops for a friend. They can't use Vista due to incompatabilities with some of the software their employer uses. I called Gateway. Thanks for the link, you saved me a TON of hassle! I'm having the same problem with a Gateway GTE desktop my company got last week. We had to ditch Vista because our software won't work with it.
Now I'm trying to track down the right drivers for XP. Maybe I'm looking in the wrong area of Gateway's website, but the only drivers I can find are for Vista. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated! I wasn't sure if I should start a new thread or not for my similiar dilemma. I knew you guys would be able to help me out. You guys are awesome. Thanks too from me, I'm writing to you from my Gateway on XP that now works right Does anyone have a lead for an XP driver for that?
I suspect I'm out of luck with this one, but I have to ask. Thanks again! I genuinely like Vista, it just Thanks to you all for this thread. I too have had the Vista pains and decided to go back to XP. I have a Gateway laptop serial MT that i bought at best buy. Anyone else have luck with these? I've looked on the Gateway site and they only seem to have the modem device driver for Vista. The downloaded the Sigmatel driver for my audio which works but now no modem.
Is there a standard driver i could use for this? A place to check for drivers or at least to see if there are any possible drivers available is www. Hey guys: First time here on this group.
