Using the restore discs might not have been so benign; nevertheless, perhaps your machine was off-put by a new piece of hardware (e.g. USB drive, external HD, webcam, etc.) you put on.
Unplug all but the basics; mouse, keyboard, speakers, monitor...and just reboot, selecting Boot Normally and hitting Enter if asked to choose.
For that matter make sure the monitor's plugged in well, clean out the machine with compressed air and a canister vacuum, check that the videocards etc. are well seated...and retry.

Failing that, give some proper detail as to what works, what's unpromising, and what's unexpected.

Hi Keith... here is all I could find on this machine, I assume this is how yours is set up. Component details are almost impossible to get on E-machine units, they just do not provide them.

• Processor Intel Celeron D 356 / 3.33 GHz
• Memory 512.0 MB / 2.0 GB (max)
• Hard Drive 120.0 GB - 7200.0 rpm
• Operating System Microsoft Windows Vista

First, you want to check to see if your proc even can be changed; many of E-machine procs are permanently attached to the motherboard and cannot be removed; this is the cheapest way to manufacture a computer, and E-machines is bottom of the line quality computer (no insult intended, just fact). Since I don't know what CPU socket the T3604 has I can't tell you if the Intel CPU would fit it. Next, I don't know what the Northbridge is running at; if it is less than 1066 there will be a bottleneck and there is no significant gain. At this point, I suggest that you not spend a lot of money on this, better to save and build your own computer. If you are a hardcore gamer looking for high framerates you really don't want this machine. Better to load in more RAM if you have no other options. Here is something I ran across: http://www.overclock.net/t/763634/what-to-upgrade-emachines-t3604 If I had the above details I could give you an answer.

www.dynamite.com might still sell what you want :> Just kiddding!Try a complete wiping of the hard-drive unless you are doing an upgrade, you will lose all data on the drive. If that doesn't work, you might not be running enough ram memory for 7 to run cleanly on you machiine, go ahead and upgrade.Hope this helps!

I found the micro switch power button was broke on a lap top and also on a home computer in another sitution. I replaced the switch and all worked well again. On the lap top the internal spring in the switch was broke and in the home computer the switch would stick. This might seem as too easy of a fix in your case, but I would sure look at this possibility first. If it's not the power switch, all the past suggestion are in order. Good luck
