Hey! I have had this compputer for 2 years (ish) and I haven't had any problems, but recently whenever I try to play GMOD or TF2 it says no signal and my pc wont work until I reset! I cleaned the dust off of my video card but it hasn't had an effect, and I set their settings so that they fit in my screen but still nothing PLEASE HELP!
If you set everything to the proper resolution there's no reason the monitor wouldn't be able to play it. I would guess something is wrong with the program and when it loads particular information it crashes the program. Try uninstalling it and doing a general cleaning of your ram and harddrive space, if that doesnt work consult a forum troubleshooting issues for those specific programs/ games. Others might be having the same issue there.
SOURCE: No Video Signal
If you can't use the onboard video and it does POST or the PCI-E video card does show anything, most likely the motherboard is toasted. Apparenty gateway uses real poor quality power supplie and motherboards.
I have the same system, it powers on, but nothing. All I can assume is that the motherboard is bad.

Try resetting the bios. On the motherboard there is a battery that looks like a watch battery. Remove the battery, then replace it again. (make sure the computer is unplugged from the wall socket when you do this)
Does this work?

These model dells came with a recovery cd rather than a partition. You will need to call dell and have them send you a recovery cd and then use that disc to restore your computer to factory defaults.

The symptoms you described is common in fault mobo or VGA card.But VGA doesn,t turn bad so easy.I suggest to change your mobo first.
