Vista sucks by itself, regardless of the machine using it. Just throw xp on your box and it should be golden. This is a great XP machine.

I have been able to play WoW on it but not DC universe. With TOR coming out I want to upgrade the graphics card to run it. Can I get a graphics card with out upgrading the PS? Or do I have to do both no matter what? Any suggestions on what I can get? I see many different cards in the thread but most don't say if and what PS they installed. I know not every PS will fit in a emachine from looking at other sites...any advice would be appreciated. I have had the T5082 for years with no issues but I did install 2 gig ram from the get go.

I can actually play xp-era games on medium to max graphics, depending on the game. after boosting ram to 2gigs and adding a ati radeon hd 4350, this thing runs great!

I have since upgraded to windows 7 ultimate with no problems. This is my third Emachines and I have been happy with all of them.

I put it up in the attic after using it of 6 mos. because it was slow and a piece of crap. I brought it out after over 2 yrs. of storage and hoped it would age well like a fine wine.... WRONG..... it was still slow as crap and full of problems. I ran into this blog stream and did most of what everyone here suggested... (upgraded RAM, deleted crap programs, adjusted performance settings like power saving, and a few other things)...... So now my T5082 is faster than any of my older computers running XP. It only cost me about an hours worth of time and $60 bucks for 2GB of RAM. Thanks guys for the comments. Most were right on. I won't say I love this computer but am liking it much better than when I bought it. Mike K. Had this machine for years.
