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!

Programs (Outlook etc.) won't open internet explorers dialer

Asked by C_130_Herc in Windows XP Operating System

Tags: broadband, connection, outlook

When I try to send/recieve email thru outlook, or start AOL instant messenger, or any other program that used to automatically start a connection when running in my old OS (Win ME) they just show errors stating that a connection could not be established, however if I open outlook and click on an email which is written in html, it will dial and show the page in the preview pane. I used to have my DUN connection listed in the start up folder on the start menu in ME, and it would connect fine after the drivers etc. had loaded, in XP if I try it, it will fail because my connection hardware seems to take a lot longer to initialize, I'm in the UK using Freeserve Broadband (DSL) and where as in ME it would take seconds for the modem to establish communications with the server on start up, with XP it seems to take a minute or more. The compy is exactly the same spec as when running ME, ME decided to delete itself one day, so I thought XP couldn't be (much) worse to use, the system is...

Epox Mobo
1.6G Athlon
512Mb ram
dual onboard Nvidia NForce Graphics + GeForce 4 440SE PCI
on board Nvidia sound
Copperjet ADSL modem (USB)
DVD
CD-RW
350W PSU
All the other usual gubbins

Someone gimme some help, I'm getting sick of having to start a connection before I open outlook (used to have Outlook in startup too)
Help will be greatly appreciated.
