    Hi Lefty,
    I know E machines was sold to gateway at one point, and I'm not sure who owns it now. I don;t know how likely it would be to get a restore disk from them. I know you can get a restore disk from restore disk.com. I have purchased a restore disk from them before and it worked great, and it just happened to be for an emachines. Hope that helped.
    Take care,
    Pat


    Hello Everyone:

    Emachines was sold to Acer - as was Gateway - so you may be able to get the required disk from Acer :)

    Hope that Helps........

    I have been trying for 2 days but when I try to update I keep getting "Failed to download repository information" and "W:Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.../source/Sources 404 Not Found
    , W:Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad...y-i386/Packages 404 Not Found
    , E:Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead." In the update manager. Any thoughts?


    Good Morning:

    I would try to use another repository, since this one appears to still show a 404 error. What version of Linux are you running?

    Please describe the problem.


    Good Morning:

    As Falcon1986 states, if you will describe the problem(s) you are having, as well as the version of windows you are using, and the Version of Internet Explorer you are using, this would be helpful. Without this information, it will be difficult to assist you in determining what the problem is, or how to go about solving it.

    Thank You!
