Damn bro, if it's your motherboard you may as well get a whole new computer. Then again you may be able to get another motherboard with the same specs, but hell. For that trouble be better off getting something new anyway. Gateways are awful.

according to microsoft, getting a new motherboard is the equivalent of getting a new computer.

yeah but do you wanna fuck around with taking the whole ****** apart and replacing the motherboard? i'd just buy a new one. if the motherboard went out, the other components are probably gonna start going soon too.

Well at this point, i dont have money yet for a new comp, i am putting money aside already to build myself a new one, i just need this one up and running for a few more months and then i throw in tiger's backyard

Ok checked the monitor, checked the video cards, nothing, so im thinking its the mother board, but I might bring my comp to best buy to see what it is the main problem if its not the mother board
