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.

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

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

even something as small as an electrical extension or a faulty fan lead can cause you problems computer needs all of the data and power to travel through every working device and to have an end for a computer to be able work properly

a motherboard and a hard drive any leads between them will fail before your motherboard or your hard drive check all electrical extensions make sure they are securely seated even the cd/dvd drives need to have current go through make sure these devices are working

might be getting hot

check the CPU make sure it has thermal paste and dust free secure seating

also check your computer ram modules and cmos battery make sure they are dust free and securely seated some motherboards cmos batteries are soldered in

Thirteen quick beeps at startup on an eMachines E520 usually indicate a problem with the laptop's RAM (Random Access Memory). This could mean that the RAM is not properly seated in its slot, or it could be a sign of a faulty RAM module.

Here are some troubleshooting steps you can try to resolve this issue:

Turn off the laptop and disconnect it from the power source.
Remove the battery from the laptop.
Locate the RAM compartment on the bottom of the laptop.
Check to make sure that the RAM module is seated properly in its slot. You may need to remove and reinsert the RAM module to ensure a proper connection.
Replace the battery and turn on the laptop.
If the problem persists, try removing the RAM module and testing it in a different laptop or using a different RAM module in the eMachines E520 to determine if the problem is with the RAM module itself or with the laptop's RAM slot.
If none of these steps solve the problem, it may be necessary to contact a computer technician for further assistance..

1. Boot the computer to the boot menu: To do this, restart the computer and press the appropriate key when prompted to enter the boot menu. On most eMachines computers, this is the "F12" key.
2. Select the CD/DVD drive as the boot device: Use the arrow keys to select the CD/DVD drive and press the "Enter" key to boot from it.
3. Insert the Windows ME boot disk: Insert the boot disk into the CD/DVD drive and restart the computer.
4. Choose the "Start Computer with CD-ROM support" option: When prompted, choose the "Start Computer with CD-ROM support" option.
5. Run the Windows ME setup program: The setup program should start automatically. Follow the on-screen instructions to install Windows ME.
6. Format the hard drive: During the setup process, you will be prompted to format the hard drive. Choose the "Full" format option to erase all existing data and perform a complete factory reset.
7. Install Windows ME: Continue to follow the on-screen instructions to complete the installation of Windows ME.

After the installation is complete, the computer should be in a factory reset state and you can begin setting it up as a new system. Please note that resetting your computer to the factory settings will erase all personal data and installed programs, so be sure to back up any important data before proceeding with the reset.

• the switch is bad Lid close switch
• set wrong in power settings.
• or the driver is missing that makes this switch work.

so why not just assign the sleep mode, to auto sleep then on what does the power button do in settings, set to do nothing or set button to only sleep . (3 choices here) or let auto sleep do the work, set. set to say 5min idle. the switch is inside it deep and if you rip it out as you go there most noobs break 2 or 3 FFC cable jacks and now it is bricked and $300 mobo wrecked emachines or junk grade, made by Acer.com owned now and that maker does NOT have service manuals making service a royal Pain. best is work around the problem as I just told how. or ask any shop to fix it. they do know how.!!!
