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! |

Asked by rumone in Operating Systems Miscellaneous, Hard Drives & Storage
I supplied a PC from a UK builder of some experience to a customer locally. After several months the PC crashed, it appeared to lose the hard drive. The PC was returned under warranty and we were told that they had changed the CMOS battery and that everything was now fine. After a few months the same thing happened again. This time we removed the CMOS battery and everything was fine again. Several months later the same thing , this time we ran a dagnosis on the hdd and decided to clone the old drive and replace with new. Several months later same thing, we reformatted the hdd, reloaded everything and all was fine. Two weeks later the customer now received the following messages: "windows delayed write failed c:\system32\config\SysEven
t.Evt" and different file " fileC:\$Mft" .
The customer reports that the first error message was a precursor to the PC crashing when it first went wrong.
Before returning the PC to the customer 2 weeks ago, I ran a burn in test for several hours plus turned the PC on and off over a period of a week about 30 times and never once did it hesitate, running for days on end. I could change the motherboard and PSU but have already lost about £150 ($211) on the deal. Any ideas would be more than gratefully received.

Thanks.
