The T-1840 is an eMachine with an astonishingly high motherboard failure rate. You have the form factor right in your post. It is an Intel/Trigem Board. Cost to replace with the Windows XPH tattoo is $159.95... cost to replace with a good board to use all existing hard ware and your own copy of Windows, about $44.
