How to flash/update my corrupted bios in my Gateway pc

[Benmccardle]

My BIOS is corrupted on my Gateway PC and I need to fix that... I try to use it and I cant move the highlight bar. It does nothing. I would like to know how to fix this. As we all know Gateway makes it hard to even get into the BIOS. So how hard will it be to flash/update it?

If the BIOS is messed up already then you have a nice new paper weight.

On my Dell I do it from their support website. Try the same from Gateway's support site.

Take the CR2032 battery out and insert it back again after 1 minute.

The PC works as it is, it boots into Windows, but the BIOS just does not work. I actually used that computer to make this thread.

It is an All-In-One, I tried to take it apart once and failed. So unfortunately I cant do that. 🙁

Try Gateway's tech support. It's a Gateway product and they should support their customers.

Do you need to access the BIOS? If not, then you are good. Is the computer laggy? Do some programs not run? If not, then you can stick with it.
