I put an Antec SmartPower 2.0 into my eMachines and it works and fits perfectly.
Triple-check all your power connections. Make sure all the motherboard power sockets have a power supply plug going in each one. The first time I installed mine, I forgot to put in the four-pin CPU power plug next to the CPU and got the same problem you did, Dirkpitt.
