Norm,

More specific to your eMachine, SP3 presents problems for OEM systems running AMD 
processors.

As I understand it the problem was created by the OEM's not M$. I have not heard 
of a fix for it being available. You may find more on this by cruising the previous 
Posts on this forum or on www.computing.net.

Google might be another good source.
