There aren't any suitable upgrades for that particular emachine processor-wise. The Athlon you had before was the only 15W CPU that AMD ever produced for the AM2 socket, so any upgrade would draw significantly more power and (theoretically) freak out the motherboard, which is probably what you're seeing.
