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 MrRuckus in Backup & Restore Software, Disaster Recovery, Windows Vista
I am working on a Emachine w5243 that has a PC angel recovery partition and should have vista installed on it. It was brought to me is a state where it boots to what looks to be a vista PE invironment but NOTHING is accessable short of seeing the desktop and some strange (what I think to be boot partition creation software). after it sits on the desktop for about 1 min, something trys to start loading, but it never does (I have left this running for over 24hrs) and I cant see the splash scree because its covered with what looks to be something copying or installing, but again, I get nowhere leaving this run... I thing the end user may have somehow installed a partial OS but now I can no longer access the F11 recovery partition, etc... It looks like the D: partition (pc angel) is there and is intact but at this point I cant access it and I need to either:
1.) recreate or reconstruct the F11 option (or whatever F key it was)
2.) find software that will allow me to access the PC angel recovery partition.
The EU has no recovery disks as this was a refurb system and I/them do not want to pay for copies of vista when there is a perfectly good copy of the recovery partition on the D drive.
Any insight on how to access and restore this data would be greatly appreciated.
