Try to update the BIOS with the old CPU in, if not the new CPU could be faulty, yes I know it's new but it is entirely possible

This is a problem with your Operating system. Thsi usually happens as a result of a virus activity or system files that have been corrupt. For you to fix this, Lets try the following options.... 1. Restart your computer and while it is booting, just before it starts displaying letters and numbers on the screen, keep on pressing F8, until it gives you an option for you to boot in safe mode. Select SAFE MODE and wait to see if the computer will boot into safe mode. If this option works, then you have to download an antimalwarebyte software and run a complete scan on your machine. But if the first option does not work for you, the try the next one. 2. You need to have an operating system Disk that is the same with the one your computer is using. For example Win XP. 7/ 8. Then you will have to boot the computer with the disk in it such that the computer will boot from the Disk. This will give you options for you to repair your machine without loosing any of your personal data.

If you don't mind loosing everything on the hard drive, restoring the system is fairly easy. Locate your disks that came with the computer. In there, you should find a disk either for Vista Home or a restoration disk. Place this in the drive and reboot the computer. You may have to press a key like F8, F10, etc, during the very first startup screen to boot to the disk. You should be able to follow on screen instructions from there.

E machines I dislike having to say this they have lots of issues with their motherboards. Their hardware is integrated meaning you must purchase their parts only, I have lots of them in my garage more than any other PC over the years. People do not believe me and swear by them. I do not work on them anymore. My suggestion is unless it is a newer model machine buy another and get out from this computer. It will nickle and dime you in the long run. Just an opinion?

Take a windows XP CD, Switch on your PC and go to "BIOS" menu and select "Boot From CD/DVD" whichever is applicable for your pc.Now insert the Win Xp disc i drive and start PC, Boot the Pc From CD Drive and you shall get the Blue screen of windows Installation. Restart the PC by hard pressing the power button for 30 secs.Now you will be able to login to windows.

If your trying to restore your machine back to factory setting then you can follow the steps below: 1. Go to start menu 2. Click on all programs
3. Click on Emachine
4. Click on Emachine recovery management
5. Click on restore on the bar across the top
6. Click on restore to system factory default or 1. Turn OFF you computer 2. Press and Hold ALT key then tap F10 8 times immediately after you turn you computer on. Hope this information will be helpful. Thank you forusing FIXYA.

Now I'd like to ask a question. Are you replacing the motherboard, and may I
ask why?
Post in a Comment.

It is the operating system - not the pc. Try locating the drivers that are specific for your operating system.

Do you have the original operating system on CD or DVD? also you need the new HD to be a "SATA" if you do read on

1. unplug all cables from computer (power, Monitor, Mouse, Keyboard, speakers, etc.) try to remove static from body and ground yourself.
2. place cpu on a confortable work table (if possible)
3. on the back of the cpu there is 2 screws that hold the side cover, remove those you may have to do both sides.
4. pull the cover towars the back of the cpu to remove.
5. there you would be able to see if you can remove the tray holding the hard drive or if you can get the hard drive out by itself
6. Unplug the 2 cables on the back of the hard drive (power and data)
7. There should be 2 screws on each side of the hard drive remove them.
8. Now pull the hard drive out of tray (that is a go)
9. insert new hard drive in tray and attach side screws
10. connect data and then power to hard drive (can go in in one direction only).
11. place both side cover (don't forget screws) and make sure the covers go in to the tabs so it would not rattle.
