I now have sound thanks to Neowin.net per Inronwolve's info below. This worked for me. Thought I would share.
The Gateway 6525GP isn't listed under the 6000 laptop drivers. A default WinXP install detects it as a Realtek (Doh!). I bet this might get other people, since the AC97 drivers also could show up as something else.
D00303-001-002.exe - Gateway M360 / 6000 Series Conexant Audio Driver Version: 6.14.10.0510
D00304-001-002.exe - Conexant M360, 6000 Series Modem Driver Version: 7.18.00.50
D00341-001-001.exe - Gateway Memory Card Reader Driver Revision: 1.0.3.2

PCI info for people who search.
Hope this helps someone else, so they don't have to experience the hell of gateways support site.
