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!

Distorted Audio Playing Tutorial CD's

Asked by elio11 in Miscellaneous Hardware

Tags: distorted, sound, soundmax, audio

Hi,
I have just come accross a problem I have never had before.  I recently bought two tutorial CD'squite independently from one another. One plays in Real Audio Player and the other Quicktime.  Both work perfectly regards the visual presentation, but both sound like the tutor is talking through a tank of water. I have never had any other sound problems on this PC, including playing CD's and DVD's.  I am using the built-in soundcard on my Asus P4V8x-X motherboard.
Here are some TEST RESULTS from my PC:

[Last Updated:: 14/03/2005 21:58:50]
Audio Test
Playing Wave File(test.wav)... OK
Playing Midi File(test.mid)... OK
CD Audio Test will stop in 10 seconds.
Please verify the sound from your speaker(s) now...
Testing Drive D:\
Playing CD... OK
No Error Found.
