I work for Gateway and the answer to your problem is fairly simple... 
You need to determine exactly which chipset you have on your board
(Simple call to tech support, they can look it up by your serial
number).  Then boogie on over to Intel's site where you will probably
find that you can drop in a PIII 850 (max, I think)slot 1 processor. 
Don't quote me on the 850mHz part, it could be an 800.  Just remember
to keep it to one of the 100mHz FSB procs.
