The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Deleted the BIOS on new ASUS M2N32-SLI Deluxe, Can I restore?

Asked by scrappyvintage in Computer Motherboards

Tags: ,

Ok, first of all I'm a real noob when it comes to building a PC, this is my first one.  Had no problems whatsoever until I recently ran Asus EZ Flash 2.  

At startup, everything was ok, rec'd the "Ai Lifestyle" screen, and Alt+F2 'ed into the EZ Flash program.  The catch, I've got a severe cold and am on Tylenol PM's. . .building my computer.  I anhialated my bios, which showed up in the c: drive within the EZ Flash 2 program.  So of course, now I try to re-boot, and the power goes on for approx. 5 seconds and shuts down.

Is there any way to reload the BIOS?  I've heard of "Flash" methods. . .is this the only option outside of an RMA through ASUS?  I'd hate to have to return it, but it still is within warrantee I guess.  

Two minutes ago the Tylenol wore off, and now I'm really on a downer, to quote the Beatles "Help Me if You Can I'm Feelin' Bluuuuue".  Time to get some more PM's and leave the new computer be. . .thanks in advance for the help.Start Free Trial
