Where can I get the cover plate for a Brookings-Gateway MOBO (ID# MS-6312) The plate has openings for 3 USB connects, video, printer, sound and modem cable.

My experience has always been that the place is provided by the motherboard manufacturer. Each motherboard is different.

If you have the original Gateway case the motherboard came in, you may be able to use the serial number on it and order one from Gateway's site. Otherwise check with computer stores and see if they have one that'll match.

the plates can be tricky because even ones that 'look ' the same sometimes vary, for example getting a file out to move the sound sockets sideways
