    Hi I just reformatted my p-6860fx without doing the back up for the gateway recovery partition, I also deleted that when reformatting....real smart...yeah I know! I didn't realize my notebook only came with just the os cd until after I did it. I was able to get all the drivers, and it is functioning top notch now, but I need the software that was on the recovery partition. I need Cyberlink® LabelPrint 2, Cyberlink Power2Go, and Chicony Webcam Software. I've tried to find a download online but none that I've found are for a gateway p-6860fx...I've contacted gateway tech support, there's a cd I can get for $20 but I'm not getting a clear answer if this cd will include the software I need. Any one know where I can get a download for the software? or any suggestions?

    Hi, maybe if you mentioned your location somebody have P-6860FX lives near from you can send you a copy (just an idea)

    I'm assuming its Billings, MT (providing the location provided isn't a lie), although an easier option would be if someone would make and iso image and just host it on a file server to download.

    Yes I am in billings, mt...no I'm not lying...I still haven't heard back from gateway, they were to be confirming the order number for them to ship the "cd" in the email they gave me a 7 digit # when it was supposed to be an 8 digit # :confused:
