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!

safe mode

Asked by sewla in Windows 95 Setup

Tags: command, i, prompt

My husband's Compudyne Pentium computer has gone crazy. When I changed the display settings and re-booted, the screen went crazy. I then re-booted and looked at setup. Must have changed something-didn't do so on purpose-and the computer wouldn't start Windows 95. Keep asking for system disk, but won't accept what I had. I made a start-up disk for Windows from my computer. It now will show the message Starting Windows 95 but it stays in dos and gives a A: prompt. I tried hitting f8 and starting in safe mode but again it goes to A: prompt. I can get it to change to c drive, but I don't know the dos commands I need apparently. Tried starting in line by line comfirmation but after saying yes to first command I am right back at a: prompt. What do I do now? It has been too long since I used dos commands. I do have a copy of the original config.sys file but how do I get Windows to load. Is there something in setup I should change?
