Machine will not power up. Replaced battery and removed power supply to look for fuse. I don't know where the fuse is. it currently uses a Bestec ATX-250-12E. can I use a compac model PS-6201-6C3 temporarilly, or can someone tell me how to identify the fuse?

Bestec power supplies have been blowing up EMachines worldwide. Its a common fault on all EMachines models that use them. Ive lost count of how many ive repaired over the years. They are cheap nasty power supplies and not up to the job at all. If your very very lucky you can replace the psu and you will be ok, but in 85% (ish) of cases it takes the motherboard with it.

sorry for the bad news!
