Guest Dan Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 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.
