re: Gateway laptop serial numbers rubbed off - can't get drivers Saturday, June 6, 2009 at 7:07 am Windows Vista Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Steve (23810 messages posted) I am not familiar with the Laptop you have. Some of the New Laptops with SATA Drives have a Bios setting to set the Drive to Pata mode, or something to that effect. I have not run into one yet, so can't give you much more. I would check the Bios and see if the Drive shows up there. It may tell you what you got, or open just up the Drive Bay, and take a Look. You also may be in over your Head, and it would be best to take it Back to Best Buy, and have them take a look at it.
