Ok, my computer just rebooted and for some reason, i don't think my hard drive quality is in tact, so before windows started, it took me to this blue screen with the windows logo on the top right and it was doing a scan.

i repaired something and i didn't catch what it was but i want to see.

can you tell me where this log is located?

Running Autochk When the Computer Restarts

Autochk.exe is a version of Chkdsk that runs only before Windows XP Professional starts. Autochk runs in the following situations:

f you choose to let Autochk run, you can review the Autochk report in the application log of the Event Viewer snap-in. Autochk information is logged by the Winlogon service, so look for entries with Winlogon listed as the source of the entry.
