Re: emachine
I don't know if I'd bother attempting to overclock an eMachine
 but trust me you'd notice a remarkable difference in speed if you increased your RAM.As far as I'm concerned 512MB is minimum for XP with 1GB being much better and 2GB perfect.

Re: emachine
Thanks Lonewolf nice advice.
I was thinking this was prob the only option, either that or drop kick it out the top floor and go treat myself. M

Re: emachine
I don't know what en emachine is but when I had this CPU I ran it on 3.4Ghz with no problems (using an Asus motherboard).
Not that you get any significant improvement though...

I've managed to bog down my dual core a time or two and that with 2GB of RAM but it's not a frequent occurrence. |
