Solve : Gateway needs a password????

Answer»

Friends of mine have a Gateway computer.. They WENT to turn it on after having gone AWAY on a TRIP.. Well the screen comes up and it says to hit F1, you hit F1 n it ask for a password??
So now what do they do?? they cant find the disk for the computer and I cant seem to get anywhere with it either..Maybe enter the password.Thats the problem, their is no password. They dont know of one for it, they have never had to use a passoword before.Check this out that i found.

Who was USING the machine while they were away on this trip ? ?
If it's a laptop they will have to take it to a Service Center and pay to have it rectified.
They will need Proof of Ownership.Quote

sounds like the battiery for the BIOS is dead and its asking for a admin password.
