Error-checking

[Guest Dan]

Upon right-clicking on a drive in "My Computer" and selecting Properties, we

are presented with a box with four tabs..."General" "Tools" "Hardware" and

"Security". In the Tools tab, we have the option to check the disk for

errors. I do this about once a month. In the check disk options, I do not

select anything and then hit Start. It only takes a few minutes and then a

dialogue box pops up simply indicating the the task is completed. Does this

mean there were no errors found? I find no way of viewing a report.

How to view the Chkdsk Log Entry:-

You will find the chkdsk log entry in the Application log of Event Viewer.

To access the Event Viewer

.. Go to Control Panel > Administrative Tools> Event Viewer > Application.

.. Look for the Event from the source "WinLogon".
