The key to get to the BIOS for the Gateway may be dependent to the make/model. I leave you to find this key at www.gateway.com since the model is unknown.
I see a TACTICAL BLUNDER in using FDISK since the OS in not revealed. Windows NT, 2000, XP and 2003 don't use FDISK. You boot the CD and use the native tools.
