If you need to replace the motherboard understand that eMachines uses custom BIOS and Windows will require reactivation.
Here is the motherboard: http://www.fic.com.tw/product/motherboard/AMD/k8m-800m.aspx
The user guide is here: http://downloads.emachines.com/userguides/DesktopPC_UserGuide_en.pdf but I don't think it will help much.
If the video is dead yes, you can just install a video card. It may not be recognized until you disable the on board video in the BIOS.
