It is possible that your Emachine is a new "older" box that has a AMD Athalon XP 2500 + 1.8 GHz ....
It does have 512 of Ram .....
How big is the H drive?
Its possible that the price you paid will reflect the differance......HOWEVER if you bought and paid for a XP 3200 + 2.2GHz ......Take it back and have them transfer your files to the proper machine .......(it could be a honest mistake)
let us know how you make out.
