Re: Gateway Laptop Unable to Boot Via Any Device

Hi sklaz,

I am not familiar on how Gateway laptops handle the BIOS update. But by the looks of it, it seems you got the wrong one. I am thinking you can only correct this if you get the right BIOS update and flash your BIOS again. Based on the blank screen blinking cursor symptom it looks like your BIOS is corrupt and if it cannot be re-flashed with the correct one, you may need to replace the motherboard.

If you can still boot into BIOS settings, do post BIOS details and the site where you got your BIOS update program.
