A friend of mines computer was unable to start due to this ^

Parts have been removed and re-assembled and it has windows 7 installed

http://www.cnet.com/products/emachines-et1352g-03w-athlon-ii-x2-260u-1-8-ghz-4-gb-640-gb/specs/

Upon startup no noises like beeps sound but fans are in motion. Cant really find much more information.

Have you done a memtest?  Did the install go well or is something corrupted?

Solve your own audio issues  |  First Steps with RPi 3  |  Humidity & Condensation  |  Sleep & Hibernation  |  Overclocking RAM  |  Making Backups  |  Displays  |  4K / 8K / 16K / etc.  |  Do I need 80+ Platinum?

If you can read this you're using the wrong theme.  You can change it at the bottom.

How might I do a memtest, I cant do it myself because my friend physically isn't here and i'm relaying over skype

You can just pick it from the GRUB menu on boot if you've got linux installed.  Other wise, I think they offer some sort of tool on the website.

 

Note that depending how thoroughly you want to test, it could run for many many hours

The computer wont start up so they can't go to any websites, and Windows 7 is installed.

they'll have to use another PC to get a bootable USB stick (I believe it is) setup.
