Jeffrey;
It would help us to know the exacted model of your gateway machine
It is quite possible that it uses a standard ATX power supply.
 If you can pull the computer cover and give use the approx. dimensions
and a description of the power supply it would also be helpful.
If it uses a small power supply a generic "Emachine" type power supply will
probably work, although they are usually in the 145 watt range. See one

This website may give you some needed information on ATX PS specifications:
