Hi All
My first post on this site, so thanks for having me (and apologies if this is in the wrong forum)!!
I have an EMachines 220.
I had a power issue, so I had the power unit replaced and the memory upgraded. I'm now having a different problem - I keep getting the message that there's a USB power surge even though there's nothing plugged into the USB port. This message has only appreared since the fix.
I've read somewhere else on here that this could be to do with XP Service Pack 2, but the guys at PC World reckon that one of the rear USB ports (there are 4) is shorting out and that's probably what caused the power problem in the first place.
Their advice to me is that the motherboard will need replacing and that it will probably be cheaper to buy a new PC.
Any advice from you guys out there??
All help very gratefully received.
