so when you tryed a new power supply did the computer start?
If not, you may need another mother board.

Since you tried a different PSU I would look into a new system if it's your motherboard.
Your Emachines appears to have been built around mid season 2006, running a 3300 2.0 Ghz single core Sempron. Guessing around 120GB HDD and (Specs show 256MB's) 512MB's ram.
My old W3052 has similar spec's but I had purchased mine new in July of 2005. 3000+ Sempron at 2.0Ghz, 512MB's ram, 120GB HDD.
While money may be no option for many people, it is for me. I purchased an Emachines ET1331G-03 2.7Ghz dual core, 6GB's ram, 750GB HDD for around $299. It's not a bad system at all for the price I paid new. Plus I've seen people pick these up used for around $20-50. It is an option but then again a new system would be better if price not an option. Sorry to jump off topic here, but yes a 6 year old computer is out of date by my personal standards.

replacing a bad motherboard often fixes the computer aslong as everything else is good.
a replacement board can be found online,like on e-bay
either that or get another computer and use the old one for parts.

I'm pretty sure I said that
You can easily find out what motherboard you have in your system going by Emachines spec's and replacing it if you chose. I personally have to recommend a new system but if the one you have serves you as it is, don't buy/build a new one.
No real reason to get a new system if your just surfing the web. Extra ram may help though.
