Welcome to TSG Tony. I don't really know what to suggest of a practical nature for this, but I wouldn't believe EMachines about it being a "driver" problem. At that level the problem would seem to be only hardware related. They have a reputation for bad power supplies and that could be it. I wouldn't expect a long life out of it with what you are currently having to do, but I would avoid the procedure you are using as far as possible.
Does the system reboot properly when you go to start>shutdown>restart?
You really need to do that about once a day to cleanup memory and let Windows backup your registry.
