Emachine t3985 won't turn on

Give us more details on what happens when you hit the power button. Does it try to turn on? See any lights or hear any beeps? Hear any fans?If you really want help give details to get a solution.Remove the Power Cord, Remove the Battery, Remove the Memory Cover and remove one of thememory chips. Set the chip aside then try rebooting the computer. If it boots, then you know the memory chip you set aside is bad so mark an x onit with an ink pen. If it fails to boot then move the chip to the nextmemory slot and try rebooting. If it fails take the chip out and set itaside, then put the other chip in and try booting it in both slots. If itboots, just to verify that the chip set aside is bad, mark an x on it and putit into the open memory chip slot and try booting.

I restored T5048, but now it shuts down and restarts non stop ?

Shuts down and restarts the boot process automatically continuously. Try turning it off, then hit the power button and immediately start hitting the F8 key repeatedly until you see SAFE Mode. Scroll down and see if you see an option to Cancel or Stop automatic restart on system failure. If you do click that and try rebooting your machine. It should tell you what exactly is the problem so you can read it without it rebooting all the time. If it's that you need a CMOS battery you're in luck. Just turn the computer off, remove the case, sit the computer on it's side, get a flashlight and look inside for a battery about the size of a nickel. Normally the size of the battery is CR2032 which can be purchased at Walmart or you local grocery or drug store for $5.00. Just use a small flat head screw driver to remove the old battery and pop in a new one.

Acer desktp internal ram installation needed

I'm a bit confused....did you have all four of these in the ACER and are trying to put the 2x1GB into the Emachine? And that the 2x1 GB wouldn't work in the Emachine but they did in the ACER and that the 2x512 Acer cards worked in the emachine?If that is what happened here is my best guess. The ACER MOBO will support 533/667/800 MHZ DDR2 RAM. The Emachine will only support 533 RAM. Iys possible the 2x1GB are either 667 or 800 MHZ and are not compatible with the Emachine but will work in the ACER.

Monitor says no signal

Monitor states No Signal, because it isn't receiving a Video Signal, from the computer.This can be from;A) A bad monitor cableB) Bad graphics card, or bad graphics chipset on the motherboardC) Computer isn't working. (May look, and sound as though it is)A1) If a flat LCD screen monitor (Digital), does it have a removable monitor cable, and do you have access to a working monitor cable of the same, to use for a test?A2) If not, do you have access to another KNOWN to be working monitor, and cable? Use it for a test.Or use your monitor and cable on a Known to be working computer.Monitor and monitor cable prove to be good?Next is go to the graphics card, or graphics chipset.B1) Graphics Chipset:Primer:Chip and Chipset are slang terms for I.C.Integrated Circuit,http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integrated_CircuitA graphics chipset is a GPU. Graphics Processing Unit,http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GPUA GPU can be soldered directly to the motherboard. This is Integrated Graphics. (Another term used for Integrated Graphics is OnBoard Graphics.ON the motherBOARD)A GPU can also be soldered to a removable adapter card.This is a graphics card. Also known as a video card.If the graphics chipset is though to be bad, a graphics card is installed, (Drivers FIRST, then physically install the graphics card)You won't be using the motherboard, or Integrated Graphics anymore.You will be using the graphics of the graphics card. This is how a graphics chipset problem is cured.( If my data is correct, the eMachines T2240 Desktop PC uses an FIC VL35G motherboard.First International Computer {Inc},http://www.ebay.com/itm/eMachine-HP-VL35G-865G-P4-Socket-478-uATX-Motherboard-/270778135974#vi-content Has an AGP expansion slot { Brown slot above the 3 white PCI slots } for a graphics card )C1) Computer not workingI think you can skip B1) and go here first.Reasoning is, that 80 to 90 percent of desktop computer failure, can be attributed to;Computer is dirty insideBad Power SupplyStart with computer is dirty inside. Computer on a table, computer unplugged from power, computer case open. Follow Anti-Static Precautions, check out the condition of the inside of the computer.[Anti-Static Precautions:Your body carries Static electricity. Static WILL fry out (Short Circuit) the delicate hardware components inside a computer.Computer on a table, computer unplugged from power, computer case open, TOUCH an unpainted surface, of the metal frame of the open computer case.SHOULD you leave your computer in the middle of working on it, be SURE to Touch the metal frame again upon your return ]If the computer is dirty inside use a can, or two of compressed air for computers, and clean it out.You may also need Q-tips to break the outside 'crust', by stirring it around. Then the compressed air can remove it better.[ You may wish to don a dust mask, and protective eye-wear ](Especially good for where the fan blades, meet the center hub of the fan; Edges of fan blades, and other areas )Insert the plastic straw provided on the side of the can, into the nozzle at the top of the can.Break the plastic lock tab off of the top of the nozzle.Start at the top left, or right inside corner.Spray air as a professional paint sprayer would. Squeeze the trigger in all the way as you start, let go when you reach the other side.Drop down a space, and spray air across again. Keep dropping down in rows, and spraying across until you reach the Processor Fan.The Processor Fan sits on top of a finned Heatsink. The Heatsink sits on top of the Processor.(The construction of the Heatsink is basically a small plate of metal, with tall, thin fins protruding from it. The plate of metal absorbs heat from whatever object it is placed against, { Processor in this case}, and the tall, thin fins absorb heat from the plate of metal.The tall, thin fins then radiate the heat away. The air flow from the Processor Fan, goes in-between the fins, and around the fins, and helps to carry heat away from the fins )Use special care to ensure that the fan is clean, and the Heatsink.However note that only use Short Bursts of air, when cleaning the Processor Fan.(Q-tips come in handy here)The Processor Fan is only designed to spin so fast. Spinning it faster than it was designed for (Long blasts of air), may shorten the life of the fan's bearings.Keep cleaning until you reach the bottom of the computer case. Tilt the top of the case towards you, clean the bottom of the case.The Power Supply is inside the computer case at the Top/Back.Clean through the ventilation holes of the Power Supply's case, as best as you can.Go around to the back, and clean the Fan, and surrounding cage. (Shroud)Come back to the inside once more, and give it one last 'dust off'.Also after time 'corrosion' develops on the contact pins, of the Ram Memory modules.The Ram Memory module/s should be removed, and a pencil eraser used to clean the contact pins.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Generic_DDR_Memory_%28Xytram%29.jpgThe Body of the ram memory module ('Stick'), is everywhere but the contact pins, at the bottom.A ram memory module should be handled by the Body.The Body is coated with a see-through protective plastic.Refrain from touching the gold plated contact pins.If an eraser is used on the end of a pencil, and not a solid eraser, refrain from letting the metal band touch the contact pins.Rub EACH contact pin. There are 184 pins. 92 on each side.(Doesn't take long)After cleaning use air to remove the eraser dust. You can use air from a can of compressed air, or air from your mouth will be sufficient.Reinstall the Ram Memory module/s.C2) Power SupplyCould have a weak voltage power rail. LED lights could light, and maybe fans spin, but Not enough power to turn the Processor on.A) IF all of the LED lights were on at once, they would use less than 1 Watt of power.B) EACH fan uses 2 to 3 Watts of power.C) A typical Processor can use 51 to 125 watts of power. Just depends on what Processor it is.There are 3 main voltages produced by the Power Supply.A) 3.3 Volts (DC) { Orange wires}B) 5 Volts (DC) { Red wires}C) 12 Volts (DC) { Yellow wires }{ALL Black wires are Ground wires }Test the Voltages to see if the Power Supply is good, (Multimeter), or use a KNOWN to be good, compatible power supply for a test unit.[Sometimes it's found that there may be an unused desktop computer around, that may have a working power supply, and it may work in the computer you are testing ]If no spare power supply is available, purchase an economical $30 unit for a replacement.{ATX}If you just want your information off of the harddrive, install it into an economical external enclosure, and remove your data.[ It is an IDE (PATA) harddrive. It is desktop size, which is 3 and 1/2 inches across in width. You need an IDE (PATA) 3.5 external enclosure.Example,http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=1733195&CatId=2779 ]For additional questions please post in a Comment.Regards,joecoolvette

How to manually recover emachine t1400

When the computer first boots up, it will go through the POST. Which is power-on-self-test. Right after this press F1 to get into the BIOS. BIOS is Basic-Input-Output-System. Inside the BIOS you can configure your boot options. You can move the priority of the CD ROM or USB to the top, above the hard drive. (I'm guessing the Operating System is inoperable.) You can now save and exit. insert a windows disc, to repair or format the hard drive and reinstall the operating system. I recommend though trying Ubuntu. visit ubuntu.com for install instructions.

This is what you need,

Not an ATI Radeon XPress 200 motherboard chipset?
I say thee nay to the forums,

1) The eMachines T5048 Desktop PC uses an Intel D102GGC2 motherboard.

Intel Support > D102GGC2 motherboard > Product Documentation and Manuals,


http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&DwnldID=15112&lang=eng&wapkw=%28D102GGC2%29

To the right of the first file -
File name: D102GGC2_ProductGuide_English.pdf
,left-click on Download.

On the next page left-click in the circle to the left of, I accept, etc.

[ The above is a PDF file. The computer you are using now has Adobe Reader on it, which uses PDF files. {Do suggest upgrading to Adobe Reader X, (10), though, if you do not currently have it}

After you click on Download it may take up to 30 seconds before the first page comes up.
It may also take additional time for the file to fully download ]


2) The motherboard chipset is an ATI Radeon XPress 200.
Uses an ATI Radeon XPress 200 Northbridge chip, and an ATI IXP 450 Southbridge chip.

Information on the Northbridge chip,

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_ATI_chipsets#Comparison_of_Northbridges_2

Look under the Model heading;

ATI Radeon XPress 1150 (originally named ATI Radeon XPress for Intel)
Intel Essential Series
D101GCC/D102GCC

(Grand Country is the Code Name for the motherboard)

Now look under the Codename heading; {code name for the chipset}
RS400, RS415, RC400, RC410


Information on the Southbridge chip is in the table that is next.
(Comparison of Southbridges)


Primer;

The motherboard chipset is the Northbridge chip, and Southbridge chip.

(Does not apply to motherboards that support the Intel Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Core i9)

Chip and Chipset are slang terms for I.C.
Integrated Circuit,

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integrated_circuit

The Northbridge and Southbridge chips have their directional names, from the way they are placed on the motherboard, for one.

If the motherboard is placed so that the Processor at the Top, and the Ram Memory is to the right, the Processor is due North.

The Northbridge chip is placed close to the Processor.
The Southbridge chip is closer to the Bottom of the motherboard, or South.
(Closer to the expansion slots)

The Northbridge chip handles the faster capabilities of a computer.

Processor, Ram Memory, and High-speed graphics.

AGP and PCI-Express are High-speed graphics.
A graphics card inserted into a PCI expansion slot, or using Integrated Graphics, is Not high-speed graphics.
Anything associated with the PCI bus is handled by the Southbridge chip.

The Southbridge chip handles the slower capabilities of a computer.

Anything connected to,
1) IDE
2) SATA
3) USB
4) Ethernet
5) Audio (Codec)

Motherboard diagram,

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Motherboard_diagram.svg


In the motherboard manual, (Product Guide), go to Page 11.
The motherboard is shown rotated to the right, in comparison to how it sits in a computer.

The Processor socket is indicated by the letter H.
To the Left is a square sitting diagonally. This is the Northbridge chip.

The Northbridge chip has an aluminum finned Heatsink sitting on top of it,

http://www.ascendtech.us/itemdesc.asp?ic=MB4INTD102GGC2&eq=&Tp=

Click on the small photo of the motherboard to enlarge.
Processor socket in the foreground, Northbridge chip with aluminum finned Heatsink, sitting on top of it.

[ The Southbridge chip also has a Heatsink sitting on top of it. It's to the top left corner of the Northbridge heatsink, in the photo ]

Notice the wording for the motherboards brief specifications in it's heading.
The last specifications stated; ATI RC410 Chipset MBoard.

ATI RC410 MotherBoard Chipset.

In otherwords ATI Radeon XPress 200.
