Sorry, I know nothing of the Gateway Game Console.
Does the anti virus attempt to remove it?
If not, directions for removal should be given.
If none of the above, consider using a different program since the one
you use seems deficient.
After Add/Remove Programs, search for and delete folders by that name.
If, and only if you are familiar enough with the registry, search in
the registry.
"I still can hardly believe how much junk software..."
Typical of most if not all major OEMs.
The best way around it is to buy the computer locally where you can
have the exact hardware and software you want with no surprises.
If the computer is that bad for you, simply return unless the 30 days
has already passed.
Windows Vista has worked well on two of my computers for 6 months.
The key is hardware and software up to the task which is not
necessarily more than a good Windows XP machine.
