It is possible for the Windows operating system on your eMachines computer to have a critical failure. If the operating system on your eMachines computer is failing, you can use your recovery discs to restore your computer. Recovery discs come with your purchase of an eMachine, and contain your operating system and all your basic drivers. You can recover your eMachines W series in about an hour.
Turn off your computer and press "F8" to enter the BIOS menu. Tab over to the "Boot Sequence" or "Boot Order" menu. Move your optical drive to the top of the list. Press "F11" to exit and save changes. Insert your recovery disc into your optical drive, then restart your computer. Press any key to boot from disc. Select the "Full Recovery" option from your recovery disc menu. Allow the recovery procedure to complete. Hope this helps.

This error can show up during installation of the operating system either via the hard drive (the restore feature is located on the hard drive and shows up as a drive letter under My Computer) which indicates that you have bad memory,
OR
You are installing from a DVD or CD, in which case it could be either bad memory or a bad disk.
good luck

SOURCE: I accedentally knocked the power wires off inside
Power On switch, (Button), wires from the front panel that go to the motherboard?
I could really use the name of the motherboard, to try to get you this information.
I don't have an eMachines W3057 sitting in front of me, at the moment, and eMachines Support never states what motherboard is being used.
Usually they are made by TriGem, or ECS, or Intel.
HOWEVER, (Not shouting), from my data bank of information, it is stated that the motherboard used in an eMachines W4022, is version of the ECS 945G-M3.
IF, my information IS correct, this is ECS Support, and the download page for the Motherboard Manual, for the ECS 945G-M3 motherboard,
http://www.ecsusa.com/ECSWebSite/Downloads/ProductsDetail_Download.aspx?detailid=527&DetailName=Manual&DetailDesc=&CategoryID=1&MenuID=6&LanID=9
Go down to the heading - Download.
To the right you will see - Taiwan, USA, Europe, and China.
These are the download server links.
You Left-click on the country name, that is nearest your country you are in.
(I have always found China to be the best for me, and I am in the USA)
After you click on the download server link name, a small window will come up on the right.
My advice is to Left-click on the circle to the left of - Save File.
(This will save the file to your computer. Then you can look at it anytime you want, and won't have to download it again)
Now go to the bottom of the window, and click on OK.
This is a Zip file. A Zip file is used to compress information, so it can be sent over the internet easier. You have to unzip the file.
If you do Not, have your downloads set to go to your My Documents folder, (Windows XP. Documents for Vista), this will go to your desktop screen.
(Windows XP: Left-click on Start, then click on My Documents. In the My Documents folder, this file may have gone to another folder. Folder name is Downloads. Double-click on it to open it)
The file will have 945G-M3 next to it.
When you see the file name, Double-click on it. This will open the Unzip Wizard. Go to the top left of the page, and left-click on -
Extract All Files.
Left-click on Next, Next, and Finish.
You will now see 945G-M3 (1.0b) next to an Adobe PDF icon.
Double-click right on this file name.
You are now looking at the Motherboard Manual.
The connector on the motherboard you are looking for is the Front Panel Header. (Connector on a motherboard is a header) Also known as PANEL1.
Go to Page 20. (Page 12 on the document)
Looking at the top of the PDF file you will see a blue Down Arrow. Click on it to go to Page 20.
The small white squares represent the pins on the connector. The black rectangles shown that go from pin to pin, represent the connector on the wires.
If somehow you cannot download the PDF Motherboard Manual, or are having trouble understanding the Front Panel Header connections, allow me to explain where the wires go.
Let's orient the motherboard position so that we are both looking at it the same way. Same direction.
Processor at the top. Ram Memory slots to the right.
The PANEL1 header is down on the very bottom Right.
The header is rectangular in shape. It has Green, Red, Yellow, and Blue areas on it.
There are two rows of pins.
4 across the top.
5 across the bottom.
The pins are numbered.
Starting at the Top Left, and going across to the Right;
Pins 2, 4, 6, and 8. (There is No Pin 10. Just an empty spot)
Starting at the Bottom Left, going across to the Right;
Pins 1, 3, 5, 7, and 9
1) Pins 6 and 8, are for the Power On switch. (Switch is behind your Power On button)
2) Pins 2 and 4 are for the Power On light.
3) Pins 1 and 3 are for the Harddrive activity light. (HDD on the wire connector)
4) Pins 5 and 7 are for the Reset switch, (Behind the Reset button)
5) Pin 9 is Not used. Nothing connects here.
Would appreciate hearing how this comes out.

If your particular eMachines model didn't come with recovery media or you just misplaced the disc, you don't want to be caught without a means to restore the operating system.
It's all too easy to accidentally download a virus or experience any number of problems that make your computer unstable.
However, there is an option for restoring your computer without the original recovery disc by using the pre-installed recovery software.
Use an external memory device such as a DVD, flash drive or external hard drive to back up the data you need to save from your eMachines computer.
Any data that isn't saved to an external source will be erased when the computer is restored to factory settings.
Remove any discs that are in the optical drive and unplug the computer's peripheral devices, such as an Ethernet cable or scanner.
Do not disconnect the keyboard, mouse or monitor.
Click the Windows "Start" menu and choose "All Programs."
Navigate to "eMachines" and choose "eMachines Recovery Management." Click the "Restore" tab.
Click "Password Settings" if you have not already set a recovery password. Type a new password in the text box and click "OK." Click "Restore System to Factory Default."
Type the recovery password and click "OK." Click "Next" to wipe the eMachines computer's hard drive and begin the recovery process.
Select "Finish" and wait for the eMachines computer to restart.
Use the series of installation prompts that appear on the screen to create a new user account for your operating system, set the system date and time, and set up your internet settings.
hope this helps
