Yes, direct upgrade is possible. Some or most of your application might not work. You can loose your settings. And if you are not careful enough you can loose your data too.

Can I upgrade my computer to Windows 7. I have an eMachines model T3990 and I was wondering would is it possible to upgrade it from Windows XP?

Almost all of the specifications are possible for windows 7 to run on that model of emachine (at least from what I have researched for you) but your big problem comes from the fact that Windows7 requires 1 Gigabyte of 32-bit RAM, and the T3990 (though upgradeable) came standard with 256 Megabytes. If the machine wasn't upgraded to have at least 1 Gigabyte (GB) of 32-bit RAM, then the installation will not be possible.
