Gateway restore discs for Windows ME

Post by technerd4 »

I have a copy of my set of restore discs from my old gateway desktop with windows ME that I cant find anywhere I could see and I wanted to see if I could upload them on here so they can be used if they are needed by someone to help restore there old gateway computer

that isnt a bad idea actually! do I have to be apart of the ftp to upload them? I can get the archive.org one now but I think I have to wait until I get approved to be on the ftp server on here :(

BA doesn't accept OEM recovery media. You cannot get FTP access with this and they will also deny it instantly meaning they wont even host it. The only way to make it public is to put it on IA.

Also, for future reference, you can put it anywhere you want. Its your product and you don't have to wait to get it on the FTP first or wait for it to be approved before uploading to those places. Overdoze is a big example of public archival along with FTP uploading.

I do appreciate it. :D

I was able to upload it onto archive.org after using my mac to copy disc 2 since it had a write protect on it if you would like the link for it let me know! :D
I would put in my collection of computers but I would hit the character limit so I will just use some of my older products and some newer products *hehe*
