Lost my cd need to download a new one help!!!
SOURCE: My recovery CD (gateway 7330gz PC) are no working
I have the same problem with my Gateway 7330gz. My laptop got infected with spywares and it was so annoyed that I have to think about recover the system. So I did it with Gateway Recovery software. I chose the recovery option (press F11 when boot up)from hard drive since my dvd drive was broken. It went well but when it boots up again and Windows XP says detecting and installing the drivers and such, it was frozen haft way through. I turned off power many times to reboot but it kept freezing at that point. I search Internet for help and seen this post. Wonderful! I press F2 to go to BIOS setup screen, use right arrow key to move to Advance menu option. There I use down arrow key to select SpeedStep, hit (-) key to disable it. Then F10 to save and exit, hit enter for OK button. The system boots again but this time it was no longer freezing, the setup process went through ok and continues...I am so happy and type this message so it might help others with the same issue. Thanks

Try reinstalling the OS. Use a OS cd and insert it beofre booting up and follow the screen instructions. Just try reinstalling the OS..Dont format it unless you wish to delete the data in ur HDD.

Sounds like the best solution for you is to take it to a Repair Shop and have them reinstall Windows for you. If you had a legitimate copy of the windows operating system on it and there is a Certificate Of Authentication (COA) key sticker on the bottom of the laptop or inside the battery case, a honest repair shop will reinstall windows for $60 or less.

I remember seeing your other post about this same request for help and you mentioned that Gateway wanted $149 to help you out.
Take the computer to a local repair shop if you need the operating system reinstalled. This should not cost more than $60 to install the same version of windows that was on your computer. Just make sure that the Certificate of Authentication (COA) sticker on the bottom of the laptop is legible so that they can know which operating system you had and what the key code (a series of five digits and letters) is.
