Same Problem

Dec 02, 2008

-   The same thing happened to me! I am so angry. I only had this computer for about 4 months!!! I am taking online classes so I need my laptop. I called Gateway Technical support and the stupid rep is telling me to go rent a computer or go to the library. She instructed me to turn the machine off and on, remove the cord battery, and nothing worked. I never spilled anything on it or dropped it. They want me to send the computer in (I am responsible for the shipping). They said they may have to delete all of the information stored on it so I have to take it and have the data transferred (I have to pay for that as well).

I really want to avoid sending the computer in if there's a simple soultion.-   gorgeousbb

- From Skillz,

For "1 Other User Has The Same Problem"... you can transfer your data externally as long as your HD is still stable and runs DOS.... there is a 12-20$ USB -to-parellel converter cable...it attaches to your HD externally using the pin connectors... try this before going to companies such as Dve svers and so forth..... google "USB IDE Adapter" if your drive is other than try "USB ___Adapter"
