How do i reset my gateway mt6705 computor back to factory setting

Step 1:
Click "Start" on your Windows desktop. Navigate through "All Programs" and "Gateway." Click on "Gateway Recovery Management." Click "Restore" when the Gateway Recovery Management window pops up, which will take the system back to the default factory specifications. A box will pop up asking for confirmation, click "Yes" and then "Start." You may have to enter a password as well, but only if your particular Gateway had a password set. Wait for the computer to restart. A "Restore from factory default" box will appear, requiring you to click "Next" twice in a row. Click "OK" in the box that appears next, and wait for the hard drive partition to be created. The factory default installation will then be moved over to the hard drive. Click "OK" in the box that appears and wait for a second Gateway restart. Several minutes will pass as Windows "starts for the first time." When restarting finally finishes, a "Set Up Windows" dialog box will appear. Click "Next," followed by checking the license agreement box, and then "Next" again. Enter a user name and picture, if desired, and a computer name. Also, customize the background wallpaper for your desktop, optionally. Click "Next." Click "Use Recommended Settings" on the Protect Windows-based dialog box that pops up. Set your correct date and time settings in the next box. Select your location in the following screen. Click "Next," followed by "Start" to finish. Wait while Windows checks for your individual Gateway computer specifications and adjusts accordingly. This will likely take several minutes, so leaving your computer for a short time is fine. Windows will then prepare your hardware and finish your Gateway restoration process, including the installation of Gateway Recovery Management. Once completed, your Gateway is good to go and ready at factory settings.

I want to download its software how can i do it?

By software do you mean the phones software/firmware?
If so...
you will need to download EFS, find that here and an alternative version here (use this one if your pc flags the first one as a virus)

First, on your pc's desktop, create a new folder by right clicking in an empty space and choose new - folder, name this LGAPP or something that you will remember.
Now open the EFS program, but don't connect your phone yet. You will see a large empty screen with an "explore" button on the top bar, press this.
A smaller empty box will open in the middle, click cancel on this one.
You will notice that the screen is now split into 4 sections. In the bottom half is your Pc's files, the top half will show your phones files once we are connected.
In the bottom left section, find your desktop where you saved the new file that you named before. Open the desktop folder and then open the newly named file, the bottom right section should be empty.
Now, put your phone into "Data mode" by going to Settings-Phone settings-Connectivity-USB connection mode-Data mode. Return to the home screen.
Now on EFS close the first window so you are back to the empty screen with the explore button at the top. Click "explore" again, the small empty box will reappear.
Now when you connect your phone you will have about 3 seconds to tick the box that appears in the top left of the small box and then hit connect in the bottom right of the small box. If a warning appears and says something about a port, just disconnect and reconnect your phone.
Once connected you will see your phones files in the top half of the screen.
Make sure that the bottom half is still showing the folder you named earlier.
In the top half, right click LGAPP and click re-name, LGAPP(text) should turn blue. Now type TOTO and click in an empty space until it is no longer blue
Right click TOTO and choose refresh. This enables you to copy the protected files in your phone
DO NOT RENAME TO SOMETHING BLANK!!
Your phone will disconnect itself
You will get a yellow screen don't panic, just reconnect
You will notice that a "ghost" LGAPP folder has appeared, ignore it
Now right click on TOTO and choose "read", after a few seconds your files will start to copy to your pc, this will take about 40 minutes, so sit back, go watch tv or somethin just don't turn off your pc or your phone, in fact, don't touch either.
Once this has finished you will have a copy of your own firmware backed up. Save this at all costs, put it on a memory stick or something.
In the top left section scroll all the way to the top and click the folder with no name (very top one) you should now see TOTO again in the top right section.
Right click on TOTO and rename back to LGAPP, then right click and refresh again.
Now click on "Disconnect" on the middle bar and choose "yes" from the pop-up. Your phone will now reboot. Thats it your done.

Or go to the LG website if it's Sync software you are after.

How do I change the password on the Actiontec wireless router? (Not the WPA key, but the web interface password. I just want to change it from the default "password1")

Open a Web browser. In the “Address” text box, type http://192.168.0., then press Enter on the keyboard.
The Web Configurator’s “Main Menu” screen appears. Select Setup/Configuration.
From the Setup/Configuration screen, select Admin Username/Password from the menu on the left side.
The “Change Admin Username/Password” screen appears. Enter a new user name (optional) in the “New Username” text box, then a password in the “New Password” text box. Re-enter the password in the “Re-enter New Password” text box. Make sure to write the user name and password down and keep them in a secure location.
Click Save and Restart at the bottom of the screen.
The “Save and Restart” page appears. Click the Save and Restart button to save the settings changed in the Change Admin Username/Password screen.
Once the Gateway has rebooted, the password is active.

You can also download a user manual from here, or - if you have any more questions - just come back here and leave a comment - I'm happy to help.

My monitor shuts down after one second.

Dell monitors automatically go into power-save mode after a preset amount of time when the computer is inactive. The Dell monitor will go completely black, instead of showing a screensaver. This doesn't mean that your Dell computer

has shut down. Instead, this allows your monitor to essentially turn off until it's needed again. You can change how long it is before the Dell monitor goes into power-save mode by changing your display settings.

Step 1 Press any key on your keyboard or move your mouse. Either will turn off power-save mode. Alternately, you can press the power button on your Dell computer tower or laptop.
Step 2 Press any key a second time if the monitor goes from power-save to stand-by mode. Stand-by mode allows the screensaver to appear.
Step 3 Enter your user name and password into the login prompt if your computer requires a login. Press "Enter" to begin using your Dell computer.
Step 4 Change the display settings on your Dell monitor to prevent your monitor from going into power-save mode prematurely. Right-click anywhere on your desktop and choose "Properties." Click the "Screensaver" tab and press "Power." Beside "Turn off Monitor," choose a time amount from the drop-down list and press "Apply."

Monitor shuts off during boot. Let the machine boot full up, hit the power button, the monitor flashes windows for a split second, and goes back to power saving mode

Hey there Celius,

Chances are the 'Refresh Rate' somehow got set too high for the monitor. On flatscreens , the result is a black screen.

If you have an old monitor (crt type) hook that up temporarily and reboot.

Right Click the Desktop
Click Properties
Click Settings
Click Advanced
Click Monitor
Lower the refresh rate or set at optimal
Check the box 'Hide refresh rates this monitor can't display'

Shutdown, Switch back monitors and try it now.

Good luck

Unfortunately when I experienced this issue not too long ago the only fix was a repair installation (also known as an in-place upgrade).

Read this KB for more info:

I think this is a work of a virus program. The aim here is that EXPLORER.EXE file is the one getting opened when you login. As soon as you open the file, "Log off" command goes up and u return to the same logon screen. Try this, Boot you system> keep pressing F8>choose "Safe mode">now try loggin in to the OS> if it enters, press ALT+CTRL+DEL , end the process that you feel it isnt appropriate > go to start, run , type "msconfig"> go to startup tab> and uncheck all> reboot the system..Hope this helps

Anonymous Mar 28, 2009

The repair installation is nothing but a reinstallation of the OS. Just take a Windows OS installation CD..put it in the drive..boot up and follow the on-screen instructions.
