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!

My cd rom drive just dissappeared!

Asked by Hot_Ice71 in Miscellaneous Hardware

I have WinXp Pro, I was fooling around with the registry (I shouldn't have done that). So I changed something to speed up the shut down and did something to my Internet connection to speed up, and change some of the automatic to manual startup services (I don't know if the details are important)

I restarted my computer, and while booting up, it gave 'drive something was updated' or something like that. Then I went to my computer, and boom! my Drive D (my nornal cd drive) was gone. Although my drive E (which is my cd burner) is still there.

So, I changed what I changed in the registry back to its normal setting (good thing I wrote down what I changed). Restarted the computer, but Drive D: was still missing. I did system restore, that didn't help.

Any thought? Thanks.
