Hello visit emachine here:
http://support.gateway.com/us/en/emac/default.aspxAnd select your pc model by number.
Remember to select the right model, because flashing the bios with a wrong one will destroy the mainboard.
I have newer heard that a bios upgrade was
necessary to upgrade the ram.
Some mainboards do have a limit of 2gb ram, and the bios upgrade does nothing to that.
Try to clean the pc out for dust, and renew the the cooling paste between the cpu and the cooling element.
One of the ram modules could have a defect.
Try to test one module at the time.
If you get the blue screen of death, the problem is elsewhere like power supply, or harddrive.
Good luck
