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!

0x000000b4, stop

Win2KSP4

A user accidentally started the install of a new video driver then rebooted the system in the middle of the process, thus corrupting the VGA video drivers for Win2K.

Upon restart the receive the error:
stop 0x000000B4

Cannot start in Safe Mode, VGA Mode and Last Known Good does nothing.

None of the following support documents address the problem.
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=250271
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=240369
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;319120

Of course reinstalling Windows would fix the problem but completely wipe out all the My Documents and every installed program. This would result in a several hour job to reinstall everything and is NOT a viable option until there is absolutely no hope of anthing else working.

I have been able to install a 2nd copy of Win2K and can now access all the files on the system.

QUESTION: Is there *any* way to copy, move, merge, etc the video files, drivers, settings, etc. from the new installation of Win2K into the old one?
