Hi, im looking for help with my gateway. its a desktop(not a tower, this one has its monitor on top), cant remember the model but it has 128mb of ram, 15gb hd, a cd and floppy drive, 2 usb ports and broadband capability(ethernet). it has the
0x0000007B inaccessable boot device error and ive tried to fix it but its plugged in and jumpered correctly. i did try a new hd for it, a 30gb that came from an ast running win98. i put the original back in and it worked for a while but then did this. i did also have it on broadband internet. it has an ati rage 120 graphics card but it only supports 16 colors (my school gave some donated pc's away, this is one of them) it gets to the win2000pro boot screen and shows the error on the bsod.

Why on earth are you posting this question on a vintage computer forum in the 'Vintage Computer Hardware" area of the forum? Did you mean to post it elsewhere?
