Contact Gateway for advice and a list of dealers in your area.

If you were to log on to the manufacturer's web site, I think you will be pleasantly surprised as usually one is able to download, by model number, Customer Instruction Manuals, list of Dealers, for spare parts and service, Driver downloads and Installation Instructions as required.

This is the best way of ensuring up to date drivers for your system and they are free of charge!

I hope this helps.

My gateway mt6705 need a new motherboard

http://cgi.ebay.com/GATEWAY-MT6705-MT6707-MT6709-NOTEBOOK-MOTHERBOARD-/270422175742?cmd=ViewItem&pt=Motherboards&hash=item3ef66aeffe
this may be the cheapest on ..if you do the work itself...it is not that hard ..just have to follow the steps ..and be sure you connect all back ..
to get to teh motherboard you have to remove all..starting with the hinges cover ..than battery ..hdd..dvd ..back lid..and than all screws that keep them together ..(also the heat dispenser..cause the screws are holding it back ...
after that keyboard..mouse pad..the usb ribbon at the side..and anything that crosses between the support ..(probably he lights on the lcd..and the lcd itself..from the hinges screws on the main side..

Good luck ..you'll need it..:D! I know cause I just get my head out from one a few hours ago...:D

Laptop will not charge. After wiggling the cord

That's a short in the power input section of the motherboard- I've found, much to my dismay, that the power input/charging circuit on these laptops is not a separate circuit board as it is on some other models, but is a small area of the motherboard itself. You'll either need to have someone repair the motherboard or replace it entirely.

Can laptop charger pin be fixed

I had the same issue with a Gateway we use for streaming video to our TV. I actually sent it back to gateway as it was still under their 3 year warrenty buy some 2 or 3 weeks.

While some of their parts fail on a regualr basis (DVD drives) I have to say their service is right up there in my book. You can get to a tech pretty much on the first ring to support. They pay shipping of a carton for you to send in the laptop.

While a really good technical person could replace the part on the laptop, letting Gateway deal with it for you is the best solution. That port is soddered to the mother board and that has to be a perfect joint since it is higher voltage than in other parts of the motherboard.

Keep me posted.

I have a dell laptop and the charger pin is mest up on the laptop

The power port connector is soldered to the motherboard. So, you would need to replace the motherboard (costly). It would not be worth the cost. Sorry.
