To Actually answer your question. According to Intel, the P4 800MHz FSB package will not likely work on your motherboard (According to Emachines, your motherboard employs the Intel 845GL chipset):

it looks like the best processor you can throw in there is:

On the other hand, maybe Intel has a bios update you could get to put at least the 533MHz FSB Celeron D's in there. I'd give 'em a call to see!
