    Does anybody know if there are any Windows 7 x64 drivers for the Gateway T-6836 and where?

    Or if XP or Vista drivers will work with Windows 7?

    Thanks.

    Just use the Vista x64 drivers those should work with your Windows 7x64 O/S. That is how I got my M-6860 gateway to work. Don't mess with XP drivers they won't load on W7 and it will say and tell you if you try to install them that it will not work. Make sure you check the selection for Vista x64 but I don't know which exact version of W7 you have so you have to pick from the selection which one. Example if you have Windows 7x64 Ult get Vista x64 Ult the matching O/S that will get your right driver to work with Windows 7x64.
