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!

Asked by smgshelpdesk in Windows 2003 Server, Network Cards & Adapters, Networking Hardware

Hi There
              We have a NEC Express 5800/320Lb-R server running 2003 Server on it, every day for the past week and a half our server drops the Stratus emb-82544GC Copper Gigabit Adapter and says its not connected.  Even disabling the card and re enabling it does not bring it up, only restarting the server fixes it, only for it to do it again.  We have found in the Event Viewer the following errors.

This server does not a large strain on it as, it handles printing and is a secondary DNS.  Other than that we can't work out why this card keeps dropping out.

Please Help!!
