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!

Very slow Windows xp notebook annoys me!

Asked by sae1962at in Kaspersky, Windows XP Operating System

Tags: Kaspersky Internet 2009, Windows xp, Acer Aspire 5610

Hello,

My wife has an Acer Aspire 5610 with Windows xp SP3 on it. She bought the notebook 2½ years ago. At the company she was working, one colleague installed Kaspersky on her notebook.

PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: In the last two monthes, she experiences a slow-down on the notebook so that she has to wait for the Internet Explorer for two minutes to open. Also, other Windows programs work very slow. I once entered "Start > Settings >" and then clicked on "Performance and maintenance" The four arrowed lines appeared within two seconds, then the four symbols below. I once clicked "System" by using the touchpad, but nothing happened. I tried within the minute two more times, then used the "left mouse button" (LMB) twice. A few seconds after the last try, I heard a click & then the "System" window opened six times.

PROBLEM SOLVING: I installed www.memokit.com's BootKit, but there was hardly any change. Now, I want to try something else: A repartitioning of the C: drive. But there, I run into problems with Kaspersky, even when I stop it.

MY QUESTION: When I start the C: drive repartitioning, I get the following message:

Repartitioning
____________________________________________________________________________[x]
(x) The repartitioner cannot continue, as the file below is damaged: C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application
Data\Kaspersky Lab\AVP8\Bases

___________________________________ [ OK ]

Really, it is neither possible to remove this folder, nor to compress it (zip). Is there a way to get rid of this? I made a check disk (can be done for the C: drive only after a restart), but there was no error reported. (I mean that I haven't seen an error message. I could not find any log file that contains possible errors.)

Thank you for your replies!
