I have the same complaints as the last guy. Mine still works since Nov. 2007 when I bought it but it takes ages to boot, if I shut it for a few minutes to do something it shuts down, and somehow someway internet radio starts up somewhere in the background and I can't find out where so I have to mute. Programs stopped working on it, it deleted windows media player one day =(, it has a mind of it's own. I think a virus may be in there for other issues I have. Can't wait to get a new one....scratch that, I can't wait to get an HP.

DO NOT BUY THIS LAPTOP! I got the Gateway t series 1620 in 2007. Here we are in 2009 and the thing is already spent. I had anti virus and firewall etc so it wasn't due to malicious attack. I didn't change anything vital to the system or anything like that. Firstly the Sleep mode turns into you having to force shut downs because it won't wake up 70% of the time. Also due to a design flaw it constantly over heats and turns of in the middle of whatever you're doing, or if you're lucky it'll crash and dump memory. Last but not least now it won't boot up. Oooh it turns on I assure you, however it doesn't do much of anything after that. Now I have a 5.55lb paper weight..... thank you Gateway for inferior product...In fact, in order to try and find a solution to my current situation for my crapway. I'm on my Dell Inspiron 8500 I got in 2003, hhmmmm this still works in 2009. Got my gateway in 2007 and craps out in 2009... Don't risk it! DON'T BUY GATEWAY PRODUCTS!!!!!!
