Alright, honestly I have not even been able to use my computer yet. I recieved it about 2 weeks ago, and at first they thought the hard drive was DOA, so after about 4 days I recieved another. Now it turns out it wasn't the hard drive, but instead it might me the motherboard. So now I have to package it up and send it to gateway, so they can fix it. Due to how quick vista installation loaded though, I know it is a very fast computer, also if you think about it, saving close to $400 dollars is definately worth the wait, considering Gateway FX4710-UB003A Intel system is around $1,149.00 brand new

A very good-looking computer, but problems started with the fist task I gave it. The FX4710-UB003A was unable to make a recovery disk. Not a big problem, since I use Norton 360, and back-up using Norton. The next set of problems were very bad. The Gateway would not remember the commands I gave it to go to screen saver or hibernate; it would just run full-power all the time. The problems worsened when I tried to turn the computer back on. The yellow power light just slowly flashed on and off. I finally found the only way to turn on the computer was to lightly tap the side, while holding down the power button. I think this Gateway was reconditioned on a Friday afternoon, before a long weekend. QC definitely looked the other way on this one!

I purchased the twin of this puter the fx7026 refurbished unit. Only difference is the 8800gt video card and 4 gigs of memory not 6 gigs.my factory refurubished unit was not refurubished. It is currently locked by the previous users 2 passwords. Gateway would not tell me how to unlock it. They said they will send a factory install disk that will do a complete reinstall of everything including the firmware. Problem is they said Gateway FX4710-UB003A Intel Refurbished Desktop will take 2 to 4 weeks to get. the operating system disk that came with it would not reload a fresh version of vista. I surmise this is due to the passwords on the puter. I have opted to return this item for exchange.It sure did look pretty though.I am hoping that the exchanged product will work. According to all the reviews i had read, this is supposed to be a very good product. I guess i will find out in a couple of weeks. The help i have received so far is weak. I feel as if i have purchased a 700 dollar lump of coal!!!
