Overview

This is SATA hard drive driver for the Gateway notebook computers listed in the Applicable Part Numbers section below.  This driver is needed during installation of a non-Gateway supplied operating system.  


Identification

If you have a Gateway notebook computer listed in the Applicable Part Numbers section and are installing an operating system other than what shipped with your Gateway computer, install this driver.


Installation

Download the driver file to the desktop, and then perform the following steps.

1.  If you have not already done so, locate and double-click the D00365-002-001.exe file that you downloaded from the Internet and execute the file.  Files extract to the C:\Cabs\D00365-002-001 folder on your hard drive.

2.  Insert a blank floppy disk in the floppy disk drive.

3.  In the C:\Cabs\D00365-002-001 folder, double-click F6flpy32.exe.

4.  Click OK to start the disk creation.

5.  The disk creation dialog box closes when the disk is complete.


Removal

Because the computer must have these SATA drivers when using a non-Gateway supplied operating system, these drivers are necessary and should not be removed.


Troubleshooting

If you have trouble installing the drivers, try creating another floppy disk.


Reason for Update

This is the initial release of the driver.
