Ok, i was working at my school, because i work there and get paid, i was out back by the dumpster, and i found a pentium III 450mhz gateway, with 128mb ram, 20gb hd, now i took it home, booted it, and it gives me some errors, it goes to the gateway screen, stays there, says press f1 to view the system info, so i do so.... it says an error about the time, and about drive a, i press f1 to go into the setup panel, i set the date and time, i try to fix drive a, and save and reboot, when it reboots it says it updated some settings, for example the floppy, cd rom, then it gives me errors again about the time, and drive a, if i press enter to continue any way, it just says no os found, becasue i cleared the hd to try to install xp on it or linux, now, i replaced the battery to see if it was that and it dont seem to be, i think that it is in the mother board?, any comments plz?
