    My son has a Gateway MX7515 and the powerbutton is broke and cannot be turned on. How hard is it to replace this part, as I guess I need a keyboard bezel with power button but Gateway does not have one. Is there a place I can get step by step instructions to replace this??? My 8 year old son uses this for school work and checking out Corvettes, Cobra's and Camaro's plus other high performance cars. Please advise. Thanks JT

    This service manual should give you overall how-to.

    For the power button you can ask here and here. There is no such item for
    your model of Gateway, but maybe they have one. You can try.

    Cheers...
