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!

Overactive hard drive problem solved, how do I delete Fast Find

Asked by bpeak in Windows 98 Operating System

Tags: deleting, 97, drive, hard, overactive

I was not sure where to post this comment but I wanted to thank StoneG for solving a problem that I have had since I increased the size of my hard drive.  It would start up randomly and access itself for 5 minutes or more.  This morning I went to Google and typed in "overactive hard drive" and the first legitimate hit was from EE with alot of responces.  I tried StoneG's recommendation and my hard drive is getting some much needed rest.  Thanks EE and Thanks StoneG.  You deserve an A+ not a C.

One question: The only way I could get Fast Find to stop was to remove it with my Office 97 CD.  However it still shows up and can be accessed in the Control Panel.  Is there a way to remove it completely.  I was never able to find it in the Start Menu.
