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!

PC won't boot and monitor has no input

Asked by davidcowler in Windows ME Operating System, Personal Computers, Microsoft Operating Systems

Hi experts

My PC wouldn't boot today although it was working fine yesterday. The hard drive light comes on and stays on and the fan happily spins round, but the monitor is not receiving a signal. I have tried the monitor on another computer and it's working. Also, there is no beeping from the PC, which normally indicates a successful system check or errors.

I tried to boot the PC with the Windows XP disk in the CD drive but that made no difference. I have checked all cables, cards and connections and all seems fine. I built the PC myself about 2 years ago having designed the specification myself and it has been a great PC. So, I know a bit about building PCs but I have never seen this before. If there was a screen error I would know what to do. But this? I'm stumped.

I have a horrible feeling something has failed, like the processor or something equally expensive! Hopefully not though!

Looking forward to your suggestions!

Thanks
Dave
