check disk report: where ?

[Ponch]

Where do I find a report from checkdisk after it's been run and shut ? Or is there anything I should do at first to have it save a report somewhere... I'd like to know if bad sectors were found but it just doesn't bother telling me. It just .... checks.

Well it will tell you how many KB of info you have in bad sector after its complete. You could always just redirect the output to a .txt file and create your own log.. chkdsk c: > c:\chkdsklog.txt

so the one that happens at reboot doesn't leave any repport ?

[ringfinger]

Not that I know of... someone else may be able to provide you more info on that.

this is the report you got me:

The type of the file system is NTFS.

Cannot lock current drive.

Chkdsk cannot run because the volume is in use by another

process. Would you like to schedule this volume to be

checked the next time the system restarts? (Y/N)
