Troubleshooting

Networks

You cannot connect to your company network

Every network is unique. Contact your company computer department
or network administrator for help. For more information about setting
up a network in your home, see the printed network guide that came
with your notebook.

Passwords

Your notebook does not accept your password

Make sure that C

LOCK

and N

UM

are turned off, then retype the

password.

You forgot your startup password

The password feature (which is set in the BIOS Setup utility) is very secure,
with no easy way to recover a forgotten password. You must return your
notebook for repair. Call Gateway Customer Care for instructions.
