What model is your emachines? Should have a 4 digit number after it on the back on a silver sticker.
Need to see if your motherboard has an AGP slot or a PCI express or either.

Now for those running on chipsets not mentioned above such as the 8800 GTS etc. rest assured that the game will run on those. I know the specs are scary but the game will also run on PC's that don't meet that standard but with a sacrifice.

6150 is obvisouly below that, the 8600 is new range card so you be fine for games for a few years.NVIDIA - GeForce 6600

Anyone know where I could get my hands on a ps3 demo for FIFA 08???
That sounds like the worst feature a football game could possibly have. I trust you were being sarcastic saying you like that. Unless you're like 7!
