Best Answer

Harold Godwinson marched to the north-east coast of England and defeated Harald Haardrada of Norway, then Harold Godwinson marched to the south of England where he was shot in the eye by a Norman archer while fighting William The Conqueror.

So really, the problem wasn't solved, England got taken over by the Normans from France.

first of all edward the present king did not have a son (he was nicknamed 'edward the bastard!') so he had no-one to take the throne after him. there were also problems as everyone who was running to be next in line for king had excellent things about them eg experience confidence being about to rule etc so it was a hard decision.
