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! |

Have a computer here that is a Dell Dimension 8250. The cd-rom's take forever to recognize the cd that has been inserted. I have tried using a new ide cable with a new cdrom with the same results. I have also used the cdrom and her cable on another computer and it works fine; instantly recognizes the cd that was put in the drive. Ive also noticed that if i were to put a diagnostic bootable cd in the cdrom and boot while the computer is starting up, it reads instantly. So this must be something caused inside of Windows. I have uninstalled and reinstalled drivers as well from the plug-and play drivers.
On a side note, i have replaced the video card as there was 3 blown capacitors on the board. I have also noticed that there is a swollen capacitor on the motherboard as well. Ive seen one capacitor cause a lot more issues than this one so...
