Acer needed a foot in the door for a better market share in the US market and this was their solution. Because Acer does not custom make systems as is required for most Enterprise buyers, they spun (sold) the business side and manufacturing arms of Gateway off to MPC who has always been the scourge of the computer industry. They used to Micron (the Yugo of the computer world). Acer only kept the consumer side of the business. Trying to get any information from them for corporate computers is now almost impossible.</p> Gateway is only Gateway in name as it was purchased by Acer.

It just redirects viewers to a long defunct website for MPC which has been out of business for 18 months. Fortunately, a few of us put the website back together as a free download site and you can still get info on an archived Gateway Pro system by sending the serial number to the webmaster at mpcdrivers.com</p> Unfortunately, for owners of Gateway Pro systems, who were bought out by MPC which also went out of business, the serial number tool doesn’t work.
