It might be a Ram problem. If there is more than one stick of Ram in the eMac, you can leave one in at a time and see if the problem goes away. You can try pulling the Ram out and reseating it first, just in case a Ram stick has somehow worked loose.
It's got 512MB RAM (yes, MB!). Two 256MB sticks. Rather than messing with all this troubleshooting, I may just take the hit and get her a used iMac.
Forgot to mention the specs: 1.25GHz G4, 512MB RAM, 40GB hard drive, combo drive, heavy as all heck.
