My emachine T5026 will simply not turn off. As Windows closes to shutdown, the computer just keeps restarting. The bug doctor said it was a problem with the video card and to upgrade to the latest driver. I did so. No change. Eventually, Blue screen of death appears if I try to shutdown the usual way. IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL I have researched the symptoms and wonder if the power supply can become corrupted etc. to cause this problem? The computer does seem to be running quirky..I manually turn it off and on...but it does not seem to take any time to recycle...the screen flickers a bit before windows is available. Any help or suggestions would be highly appreciated. BTW, I thought of just replacing the video card- but that can not be done on this model. Thanks....
Emachine on power
Hi, I came acroos a similar problem on an older model of emachine. If I remember it right what I did was to update the chipset and agp and other drivers (especially the lan card). The T5026 uses Intel 915GV. Most of what you probably would need can be found at http://downloadfinder.intel.com/scripts-df-external/Support_Intel.aspx?lang=eng. Most of the updates are chipset and OS specific. Good luck and please let me know how this works out for your. Cheers.
