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!

HD & monitor will not power up

Asked by geeEFF99 in New Computer Users

Very occasionally in the past my HD & Monitor would not power up after a shut down but after poking and prodding plugs/cards etc I always got the PC to run. This time however no matter what I do I can't get any life out of it.
The power supply is ok, the green led comes "ON" on the monitor (flashing), the HD tries to run but there are no beeps. I disconnected the monitor signal cable and immediately the warning sign pops up on the monitor so there's nothing wrong with the monitor. I read in the archive of a similar problem where the CPU sink had flashed and caused motherboard failure but in my case the PC has always fired up afterwards (except for this time) which couldn't happen if the CPU/mainboard had burnt.
I did find my CPU fan was running slow but have now cleaned and oiled it and is now running at full speed.
I'll be happy to hear from anyone with experience of this problem, I'm getting desparate!
