Are you getting any beeps?

If it doesnt beep at all, i would start with the power supply. Keep in mind that just because the fans spin it doesnt mean that the PSU is working properly. If you have any warranty left you should contact gateway and have them send you another one to try.

Thanks for your help.
I don't have any beeps and no warranty left with gateway.
This might sound stupid but
Where can I buy a power supply?
Thanks again

According to the gateway site, you machine has a standard ATX 250watt power supply. Heres a link to a 400 watt power supply which is what should have been used in the first place.
