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!

Windows 98 hang on boot

Asked by john_jenkins in Windows 98 Operating System

I have just installed Win98 v2 on a new 20Gb disk 4Gb boot/8Gb/8Gb and Fat32.

The whole system hangs on boot more often than not - I can sometimes force it to work by booting to safe mode and then re-booting - not always. Hang up is after short display of DOS screen (codepage setting etc), and the rolling blue bar at the bottom of the Windows logo just freezes up .... big-red-button time.

H/ware: PII 333/64Mb RAM/SB AWE 64 value/Dysan IDE CD ROM/Legend V motherboard, Hauppage WinTV PCI/ Bus mouse/ 3 1/2" FDD, internal V.90 P&P modem (COM1) / Quantum 3D Raven .. 1024x768xhicolor/ hotachi p&p monitor

S/Ware: Win 98 v2/ fully patched up/ IE5/ Office 97 / Worms armageddon / Seti@Home screemsaver / Dr. Solomons 8.04 (latest)

Pretty base system....

Help please? - or it's back to Win95OSR2

Regards & Thanks

John
