I had a bad power supply  ... (overheated) on an old 386 that was given my roommate back in 1991, and it crashed the C prompt.  That was a tough call at the time.  Even the Fry's techs didn't catch it till one of the noob's came to me literally crying cuz he thought he'd fried my motherboard.  I rebuilt that system through 1998 (It ended as a P266) it was my "learning" computer.  I believe by the time I gave it to a doctor in LA to learn on the only part that was original was the ribbon cables inside!!!  Just a story to share.  :) 

All of the scenereos (sp) still point to using the warrenty.  Gateway is good about their warrenties.  I have 2 Gateways here and have been pleased with them.
