20 Most Recent Gateway Essential 400 PC Desktop - Page 3 Questions & Answers

If the operating system is Windows XP or 2000, then restart the computer, press F8 before the loading screen (after BIOS) and select Safe Mode. Then login to the administrator's account. Click 'Start', and then 'Run'. Type "control userpasswords2" without quotes and press enter. Find your account on the list, click reset password, enter a new password, shutdown and switch back on.

the CD drive jumper setting might be the same as the hard drive. they both might be set as master. check that first. if that is correct go into your bios settings and set that back to factory defaults.

Appears that way... try to Boot from a CD or Floppy that will confirm your fear. Most HD will only last 4-6 years.

1. They're Small
2. They don't have much power
3. They don't use very much electricity.

There might be a restore partion. While the computer is first booting up look for something like "Press F2 to restore". If you don't see that then your machine probably doesn't have one and you will need to contact Gateway for a set of restore CD's.
Good Luck

Hi,

What is the make of your machine though ..... ?
Is this what you are  looking for .. ?
Thanks 
Fame !

Try booting into safe mode by pressing F8 when boot up starts. Choose safe mode. When it's booted up, right click on "my Computer" and choose properties. Click on advanced and choose the advanced tab. Go to performance and change the settings of Virtual Memory to what Windows Recommends.Restart.

By all means, take it back where you got it. More than likely the computer is groaning about something simple like the location of the hard drive on the data-ribon. The place you purchased this machine will more than likely figure this out. I would go into details about how to fix the issue, but there are several things that " could " be happening, and i'm not comfortable sending a novice into thier bios settings, or opening the case to determine the exact issue.
