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!

Low System Resources!!!!!????

Asked by SundeyPSU in Personal Computers, Windows XP Operating System

Tags: system, usb, resources, 070m

If i try to do any thing with video or pictures that are large files I get a message that states my system rescources are low and what ever I try fails. For example, I can be trying to save a very large file in Adobe Photoshop, scanning a picture @ anything over 1200ppi using my HP software, or trying to create a panoramic picture using Ulead Cool 360 using more than 6 pictures. The thing that bugs me is I have 4 gig of RAM in my PC (even though Windows only sees 3GB), and a P4 3.8GHz CPU AND plenty of hard drive space. What gives. I am very annoyed and ready to go to a MAC. If I look at the Task Manager, my CPU and memory usage are low when I get this message (around 400MB of RAM and 0-2% CPU usage).  Do I have a corrupt Windows install? Any ideas? I have a Windows XP Pro PC.
