It has Windows XP Media Center 2005. I do not have a charger so by the time I do get it, I will archive as much as I can. Thanks for your understanding. UPDATE 1: I got the charger! The hard drive's health is bad, yet usable. I will need some time to figure out a solution. USER out. UPDATE 2: The hard drive isnt being picked up by a hirens boot cd, nor the BIOS. I've taken it out just for safe measures. I'll buy a HDD hub soon, download a ghosting program, and save what I can. USER out. UPDATE 3: Found a few manuals online. Will post here. UPDATE 4: Found 2 Recovery CD\DVDs. Both on archive.org. I will link them here. System DVD (CD 2, Drivers & Applications is missing): https://archive.org/details/microsoft-windows-xp-media-center-edition-2005-sp2-2005-english-gateway-oem Tested and is bootable on Limbo x86, creates Recovery Partition. x86_64 (Dual Core, Looks like it is bootable): https://archive.org/details/gateway-wxp-media-center-2005-dual-core Looks like the extracted contents seem to be bootable/ a WinPE. I might be able to reconstruct the image. UPDATE 5: I found an archived support page! https://theoldnet.com/get?url=http%3A%2F%2Fsupport.gateway.com%2Fs%2FMobile%2FQ106%2FBlade%2F5956nv.shtml&year=2005&scripts=true&decode=true UPDATE 6: I found a driver page! I've downloaded my drivers from here before, it's reliable. https://www.driverscape.com/manufacturers/gateway/laptops-desktops/mx6421/5509 UPDATE 7: I found some wallpapers for MX6000 series computers. UPDATE 8: Using WinToUSB, I was able to get Windows 7 on it, thus giving it some functionality. UPDATE 9: I tested the system cd listed above, it installed. Recovery Partition and system image (qcow2) coming soon.
