HiYou will be able to purchase the CD from any computer shop near to your home.Also you can purchase it from the website of the Microsoft.Click Here in case you want to get more information.In case if you have any more trouble do contact back in Fixya.Thank you

Test all power and data leads that attach to your hard drive IDE,SATA the leads from your MOTHERBOARD TO YOUR HARD DRIVE make sure they have secure dust free connections and are not faulty or just replace them they could be faulty motherboard and a hard drive any leads between them will fail before your motherboard or your hard drive if its a flat ribbon 40 pin type IDE replace it this will be the first to fail

make sure all leads that are attached to your drives dvd\cd floppy have secure dust free connections and are not faulty or just replace them they could be faulty a computer needs

power and data to travel through every working device and to continue its cycle and have an end so any faulty leads will end up with a computer error

even something as small as a faulty power lead or fan lead can cause you problems

computers need all of the data and electrical current to travel through every working device and to have an end to be able work properly

make sure ram modules and cmos batteries have dust free secure seatings and cmos battery has charge some motherboards cmos batteries are soldered in

you might not have enough computer ram

not having enough computer ram will run your computer over its limits putting to much strain on the CPU central processing unit and can cause memory dumps

you might have to many programs trying to or accessing the internet at the same time scroll to bottom toolbar (bottom of screen) right click select task manager applications you will see whats running if you see anything you dont need running select end now and you might uninstall that specific program if you or computer does not require it to run and some unnecessary programs that could be jamming up your computer also under processes see what is ticking over in the background again if you see something you dont need to be and users you will see who is using your computer you might need to add more computer ram if you're not sure if a module is right for your system use the Crucial Memory Advisor tool for a list of guaranteed compatible modules. first you will need to select the manufacturer from a drop down list then select your product line from a drop down list then select the model then click find it will take you directly to compatible ram also you will have an option to scan your system you should always ask for a guarantee on the compatibility of the ram before making any purchase

might be getting hot

check you CPU make sure its securely seated and has thermal grease

sound software error re install sound driver

make sure the boot order is starting from your hard drive the directions on how to change your boot order usually vary depending on what version of bios you have but they are usually self explanatory. Restart your computer During the boot process you will see on the screen to press a certain key to enter setup usually the Delete or F2 key this will vary depending on your computer and operating system Press and hold that key during the boot up process to enter BIOS using the arrow keys load failsafe defaults or load optimized defaults press escape then press f10 to save to cmos to restart

this changes the boot order and see if that solves your problem if not you will need to replace your modem I do hear that a modem can also cause this. hope this helps

According to my sources the eMachines T6420, is supposed to use an MSI MS-7207Also known as K8NGM2-L,http://www.newegg.com/product/product.aspx?Item=N82E16813130041As you can see 4 ram memory slots.You don't know what you're talking about...............OH I'M JUST KIDDING![Whoa! Settle down there big John. No need for violence! Lol! 'sides I would just sit here and whine! ]There have been several times, eMachines 'fought to keep their head above water'. During some of those times, they bought from one motherboard manufacturer, after another;Asus, ECS, FIC, Intel, MSI, and TriGem. Then Gateway bought them out, and Acer bought out Gateway.Point?You may have a 'last moment' motherboard.Point 2, is the original motherboard may have gone bad, and been replaced.What to do?I suggest using the free CPU-Z from CPUID.comThis tiny program will tell you info about;A) Processor (CPU tab and Cache tab)B) Motherboard (Mainboard tab)C) Ram Memory (Memory tab and SPD tab)D) Graphics (Graphics tab)http://www.cpuid.com/softwares/cpu-z.htmlThe Mainboard information will tell you the;1) Manufacturer of the motherboard2) Model number of the motherboard3) Motherboard chipset4) BIOS; Manufacturer, version, and dateArmed with this information, you, or I, can find out all of the specifications of the motherboard. May be also able to find a motherboard manual.On the right side of the CPU-Z page, go to the - Download latest release - subheading, and click on the purple -1.61 setup, englishOn the next page click on - Download Now! - in the purple rectangle.A small window will come up on the right -Opening cpu-z_1.61-setup-en.exeClick on Save File.A small window will come up on the left. In the wording at the top, tells you where the file will download to.Windows XP; (For Vista and Win7 it is slightly different.

Another term used is Microprocessor, or simply Processor for short.Click on the Mainboard tab. Post back in a Comment.Regards,joecoolvette

A good way to tell is disconnect your hard drive's, & CD/DVD ROM's power & data cable. Try to boot.If you get the same results then you can try & remove any PCI cards from the board, remove your ram stick. Try to boot. If you get an error beep because you are missing ram than this is good.Replace 1 ram stick back into your motherboard & try again. If it boots then you know the other stick is bad.If removing all the non-essentials from your motherboard doesn't work then all you have left are the motherboard & power supply. A simply power supply tester or spare power supply will tell you if it is your board or not.

contact you ISP internet service provider they should be able to supply you one free of charge depending on your current contract and if the modem is broken they will be able to check it online for youhope this helps

You might have some viruses and malware....Start your PC and press F8 several times until the boot menu comes up. Then select "Safe Mode with Networking". Now get some or ALL of the FREE programs below.Download, Install and Run Malwarebytes Anti-Malware:http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=5756When Installing choose the non-pro version.Download, Unzip, Install and Run TDSSKiller:http://majorgeeks.com/Kaspersky_TDSSKiller_d6895.htmlDownload, Install and Run Super Anti-Spyware:http://majorgeeks.com/SUPERAntiSpyware_d5116.htmlIf you have an outdated Anti-virus program then Download, Install and Run Avira Anti-Virus:http://majorgeeks.com/Avira_AntiVir_Personal_-_FREE_Antivirus_d955.htmlMake sure to select ALL of the "threat categories" when you install or configure Avira...You should be in pretty good shape if you run and install all of these programs.

If you have forgotten your password if you have another user account with administrative privileges you can log into that account and change your original user accounts password from the User Accounts applet in Control Panel.

If you dont have another account like this set up or dont have the password to it you will need to log into the built-in Administrator account.

In XP Home boot the computer into Safe Mode.

Do this by repeatedly tapping the F8 key as the computer is starting up.

This will get you to the right menu

Navigate using your Up arrow key the mouse will not work here

Once in Safe Mode you will see the normally hidden Administrator account

The default password is a blankIn XP Pro you do not need to go into Safe Mode

At the Welcome Screen do Ctrl-Alt-Del twice to get the classic Windows logon box.

Type in "Administrator" and whatever password you assigned when you set up Windows.If you reset the built-in Administrator accounts password in Home or have Pro and dont remember the password there are ways to change the password for that account to a blank

That's easy LouWhy?Primer first before I give a recommendation. I ABHOR just posting,"Oh, use this one".I like to teach, so that you can use deductive reasoning based on intelligent thought.Primer;Because for one eMachines are a budget computer. As such they use low quality budget Power Supply's.Probably a generic Bestec, Hi-Pro, or Delta, power supply.250 to 300 Watt.12 Volt power rail is probably 12 to 14 Amps.Nothing to write home to Mom about. Just an internet, or office program computer, with compatible power supply.The size, and shape of the power supply's case is an ATX.Approximately 6 Inches Wide, by 5-1/2 inches Long (5.5), by 3-1/2 Inches Tall. (3.5 / Height)ATX also refers to that is has a Soft Power On feature, plus refers to the power cables it uses.The eMachines T5272 Desktop PC, came with an ECS 945GCT-M3 motherboard, according to my records,http://www.ecs.com.tw/ECSWebSite/Product/Product_Detail.aspx?CategoryID=1&DetailID=719&DetailName=Feature&MenuID=1&LanID=0To the right of the blurred motherboard photo, click on - More pictures.1) Requires a 24-pin ATX main power cable. Long blue connector on the right side of the motherboard, is for the IDE harddrive.Above it the black long connector is for a Floppy Drive. To the left of the Floppy Drive connector, is the motherboard's 24-pin ATX main power cable connector.Average example of a 24-pin ATX main power cable, and it's respective connector on the motherboard,http://www.playtool.com/pages/psuconnectors/connectors.html#atxmain24[Note* Color does NOT matter for any power cable connector, or it's matching connector on the motherboard ]2) Requires a 4-pin ATX +12 Volt power cable.To the left side of the Processor socket are 6 polymer solid capacitors. To the left of them are three choke coils. Right below the last choke coil, is the motherboard 4-pin ATX +12 volt power cable connector.An average example of a 4-pin +12 Volt power cable, and it's respective connector on the motherboard,http://www.playtool.com/pages/psuconnectors/connectors.html#atx12v4This is power for the Processor.3) Since there are four black SATA headers on the motherboard, I imagine you will be using a SATA harddrive. (Can also use a SATA optical drive too. {CD/DVD drive)You will need a SATA power cable for each SATA device.Average example of a SATA power cable, http://www.playtool.com/pages/psuconnectors/connectors.html#sata[ Note*IF, your SATA harddrive has a provision for a SATA power cable, AND a 4-pin Peripheral power cable, ONLY use the SATA power cable!!Otherwise you will burn out the SATA harddrive! May not happen immediately, but I ASSURE you it will happen down the road.Average example of a 4-pin Peripheral power cable, (Erroneously referred to as a 'Molex' power cable. Name stuck, just like calling an adjustable open-end wrench, a Crescent wrench ),http://www.playtool.com/pages/psuconnectors/connectors.html#peripheral[Also, it is a Standard 4-pin Peripheral power cable. The one used for a Floppy Drive, is a Small Peripheral power cable. Now used for power to a Card Reader ]D) Standard 4-pin Peripheral power cable/s. May need for computer case fan/s, besides the one on the motherboard, or power to an IDE optical drive, or IDE harddrive.Primer over.Recommendation, and why;http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=4362114&CatId=1483[NOT advertising for said website. You may find a better price from another reliable dealer. Do a search ]1) 140Millimeter Fan. A larger fan runs slower than a smaller fan, (80mm), and puts out more air. This makes it quieter, and has more efficient cooling.UNLESS, of course you are gaming! Will put out more noise. But, let's be real here. If you're gaming, with the sound up, are you going to hear the fan? Lol!2) It's SLI ready. Which means it's also CrossFire ready. Can run two graphics cards.You can use the 6-pin PCI Express power cable for one graphics card, and use the 6-pin PCI Express power cable, from the 6-pin/8-pin PCI Express power cable, for the other graphics card.3) There are TWO 12 Volt power rails. Yes, still actually comes from one main 12 volt power rail, but divided amperage between the two.25 Amp's for EACH 12 volt power rail. Yes, you can total that up to 50 Amps for 12 Volt power.4) Has all the power cables you'll need now, and possibly for the future.5) Is reliable. Has an 80 percent efficiency rating, but at a 480 Watt power load it is 83.5 to 86.6 percent efficient. 81.9 percent efficient at 600 Watts,http://www.hardwaresecrets.com/article/936[Suggest read the entire article. This website is VERY proficient at testing power supply's. Does NOT care what the manufacturer thinks. They tell the Truth. They also are the only website to my knowledge, that has an EXPENSIVE power supply tester. Tests the LOAD, for one thing. They also 'dissect' the power supply, and look at all components inside ]6) The price.Do not have to 'Break the bank', to get more bang for your buck.For additional questions please post in a Comment.Regards,joecoolvette

There are a number of possible causes for BOOTMGR errors, including the most common "BOOTMGR is missing" error message.The most common reasons for BOOTMGR errors include corrupt and misconfigured files, hard drive and operating system upgrade issues, corrupt hard drive sectors an outdated BIOS and damaged or loose IDE cablesAnothe reason you might see BOOTMGR errors is if your PC is trying to boott from a hard drive or flash drive that is not properly configured to be booted from. In other words, it's trying to boot from a non-bootable source. This also would apply to media on an optical drive or floppy drive that you're trying to boot from.

make sure there are no disks in cd floppy usb drives

Test all leads that attach to your hard drive including electrical extensions IDE,SATA

the leads from your ((MOTHERBOARD TO YOUR HARD DRIVE)) make sure they have a secure dust free connections and are not faulty or just replace them they could be faulty

if its a flat ribbon 40 pin IDE it will be the fist to fail

make sure all leads that are attached to your drives dvd\cd have secure connections and are not faulty even the electrical extensions or just replace them they could be faulty a computer needs data and power to travel through every working device and to continue its cycle and to have an end so any faulty leads will end up with a computer error

also make sure you have set it boot from you hard drive in BIOS

hope this helps
