Carl, not much, but here's something to start. Gil
Hi Gil,
According to the links you provided, I gather this is the essential hardware we've been discussing?:
2.8 Ghz Celeron Intel 845GV Chipset On-board Intel Extreme Graphics Video Bus: AGP, 64 MB shared memory
Verto GeForce FX 5500 128 MB DDR PCI Dual display 3D Graphics Card VGA + VGA + S-Video NVIDIA® CineFX⢠engine Open GL 1.4 Optimizations and Support
The last e-Machine I worked on used a proprietary mainboard manufactured for e-Machines by Trigem Computer (Korea). Even if your's is also proprietary, knowing the chipsets involved gives us a decent start with respect to researching the components database (CDB) for omissions and errors.
I'll put some time in on this in the morning, since the storm took a while to pass through and I've stayed up way too late already. Catch you then!

Carl, I took a flashlight and looked at every inch of the MB but could not find a name. (Maybe that's not a surprise??) The only thing I see that might be a name is "Imperial GV20030812." e-Machines tech support opens in a little over an hour (9 a.m. US eastern) so I'll give them a call and let you know what they tell me about the MB manufactuer and model number. Thanks! :o) Gil
