that thus far Gateway is unwilling to resolve.
This may affect you, too, cuz it may be endemic to all Gateway MCE boxes,
and maybe even all Gateway XP and e-Machines XP boxes.
I ran the...

Novice questions about MX 6440 laptop by
chicagofan
The pc is running fine, but it gets *extremely* hot after 2 hrs. use.
Is that normal for laptops or this model in particular?
Also, is it true that if I only use the laptop at home always plugged
in, it won't do any harm to the pc to leave the battery out?
Thanks to anyone who will enlighten...

Windows ME Restore CD by
Flack
Reloaded W95 on an old PII Gateway and found that MS no longer provides
downloads for IE 5.5. IE 6 doesn't run with Win 95.
Can a Gateway Windows ME Restore CD be used to put a new OS on this old PII
Gateway computer? It's too old to run XP.
