My T6420 stopped booting up. Emachines tech support said the motherboard was bad. This is 6 months after the 1 year warranty expired. They told me to call the Emachines replacement parts phone number. Emachines parts department said they do not offer a replacement motherboard.

1.0 out of 5 stars Do not buy this junk, June 11, 2007

I bought a 6420 and experienced multiple problems with the motherboard. I had to send it in for service 3 separate times before it was replaced. Immediately the unit would power up dead 25% of the time. They kept trying to just re-brain the hard drive with a new image and saying they could not replicate it. I would go without the computer for 2 weeks at a time for them to do this. Finally they fixed it by replacing the motherboard and all was well until after the warranty ran out. The replacement motherboard failed completely (the prior problem caused it to fail to boot with the fan running at full speed only sometimes). Now it won't boot at all.

These PCs are really junk. My parents have an Emachine too. I was fond of it, but it failed too after 1 year of use. The motherboard died as well. I don't think I'll buy another one from them. They are cheap, but replacing a PC because it dies every year is not cheap.

Buyer beware.

Read the press on this machine its pathetic. Mine died after 18 months (apparently a LONG time for this machine). Unless you enjoy replacing mother boards every year or enjoy getting involved in Class Actions such as the one being taken against the manufacturer because of this problem don't even consider - its ****
