e machine dead as can be

I have an e machine its a few years old. It does not do anything. No light,
no fan comes on. I already changed out the power supply and still nothing.
I do not want to lose all my info on it. How can I check the hard
drive? Can I swap it and test it in another computer?

Hello and welcome to Techspot.

I hate to be the bringer of bad tidings, but the chances are the mobo is dead. This is a very common problem with eMachines.

See this thread HERE. A search for eMachines on our forums, will bring up countless instances of exactly your problem.

If you have another computer sure u can swap out that computers HDD with the emachines HDD. Or if you have info u want to back up, just turn the computer off, open the case, and hopefully u have IDE cables, plug the emachines HDD into the CD-ROM IDE cable, make sure you also give it power to.

Then Its gonna read as a F drive or something other then the C, its easy the second drive will look like the C wen u open my computer but will just have a different name

I believe its you mobo, Dunno emachines that much but they are cheap like dells they kinda suck unless you get it for free.

I assume you were overclocking as you posted in the overclocking forum.
if not, please post in the correct forum and read the faqs:
