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!

Different programs keep on crashing, some pattern can be seen in the dump files - How to find out what's happening?

Asked by pagroup in Windows XP Operating System

Tags: Microsoft, Windows, XP SP3, An unhandled win32 exception occurred in (program name)

On one of our systems programs keep on crashing. It occurs in programs from Microsoft (Such as Outlook and Excel), but also with third party software (Such as Unit 4 Salaris, a salary administration application, and a program from Sonic Solutions). Using the dump files, I can see that most of the times the last call before the EIP gets messed up is ole32!CClassCache::CDllPathEntry::CanUnload_rl+0x3b. 7

Example stack traces:

OUTLOOK.EXE:

Should anyone need more information, feel free to ask. I used Google and had a look in the KB of Microsoft, but I did not find really anything matching this problem. I tried to attach some dump files, but these are refused by their extension. However, I can mail them on request.

Thanks for your help all,
Mariƫlla
