Gateway media recovery lost

i have a Gateway laptop. never heard of reseting media recovery disks? you can sometimes order recovering disks from Gateway not sure which registry key you are talking about? if you want to access registry, there are commands in DOS, if your pc is running. go to search box, type registry commands-it may guide you. not sure about you OS or pc age.

Hello there, I have a Gateway

if it is the original video card on your PC you should be able to download the drivers and other software related to hardware from Gateway webpage. i have used it many times to download or upgrade drivers, software, bios, etc. you go there put in your model number info and it should have all that stuff including manuals? i cannot believe they would not direct you there. Unless, your pc is too old and they dont have it on web? my laptop is about 6+ years old and its support page is still there.

Notebook screen glass slipping, how can it be re-positioned?

i have opened Laptop displays before and they usually dont slip? Notebooks, wouldn't seem they would slip either. i would guess it was something that needs repairing or replacement? i have replaced displays in laptops and notebooks, surface types probably are just replaced with another, new or refab screen. they are not expensive if my memory is correct.

I'm trying to connect a Gateway 508GE desktop

first, i assume your desktop has a wireless card in it? if it does, you cannot have the cat5 ethernet cable plugged in if you want to look for wireless providers! if the cable is in, take it out. then you should see wireless networks when searching Networks in your settings app. If your desktop does not have wireless card or capability, then there is your answer!don't know how old 508GE is, but many desktops did not come with wireless cards until the last several years or so? and you had to order them or put them in yourself.

I have a Gateway MX3702

Microsoft does not support XP systems any longer. its been a couple years at least! When they upgrade their servers, browsers, for the web, they don't consider what will happen to PCs with XP any longer. XP can no longer communicate with the new systems on the web anymore. It may conncet but soon most programs will be too advanced for XP to work with it. It would have to be updated through Windows Update program, but MS know longer updates XP programs. They are outdated. you need a new pc and OS which is now, Windows 10 latest version. You can still get pcs with WIndows 7 or 8 but they will be outdated soon too. Good Luck.

I am not sure what plugs to plug into the compact

disk drives usually have two main plugs, one for power and the other is a multplug for system communication. power is small with only one connecter. the other multi connecters in the plug. they only fit one way in drives. Just match them up. Power/multi are linked in pairs so that you know which go to any one drive. there are at least two pairs in a desktop. if its a laptop only one pair and you have to take it apart to get at wiring. Desktop, just open case panel to access inside.

Can open Yahoo account inof

can you login? sometimes yahoo servers just don't work either. i used to use Yahoo but they kept changing formats for mail, browser look, etc. without notifying people. Then they have so many problems they keep failing to work! I would give up, sync to Microsoft mail or Google. THey rarely are down or have problems and if updates are coming, they notify you before hand.

Profile monitor displays only colors and lines no resolution

To answer your question correctly I would need to know the model of that machine. But yes for a quick answer assuming this is a Laptop, you can look for a port on the side or back of the laptop that would allow for a monitor the older models do not have HDMI but still will except the older style VGA Cords. After you plug it in if it does not switch over then look across the row of keys on the top that start with the letter F You will see something that looks like a small monitor push that one, you may have to hold down the fn key located normally on the bottom left row while you select that one.
