Where can I find a CHKDSK (scandisk) log in windows xp? I left my computer running CHKDSK overnight and I'd like to know if any errors were found. Thanks in advance.
 
Check the eventlog, even that's hit or miss. Windows is just really terrible about logging or reporting any usefull information about what it's doing.

Tried that already. There's a ton of stuff in there, but I didn't see anything about chkdsk
 
When you reboot after running chkdsk, look in Event Viewer for the "WinLogon" entry. The chkdsk log is in there. Trust me, my son.
