Unless the eMachine's case is some odd-ball propritory case, I
would think either a standard ATX format, or if it is a micro, then a
Micro-ATX mainboard would work. You can still find Socket A mainboards
capable of running your CPU all over. The KM266 chipset may be hard to
find, but there seem to be many VIA KT266a, and better. I think
Nvidia's Nforce2 chipset was a great performer as well.
