Disk check at boot :
Is there a way to stop that darn thing from going off the screen after
it is done ? Maybe there is nothing to report, but I'd like to see what
is on that black/white screen at the end. You know, just one time ? Any
idea ?

In the Event Viewer (Administrative Tools in Control Panel), click on
Windows Logs, then Application. It should be under the item "wininit". You
can filter that to find it. You should find the chkdsk log there.

Hello Dustin,
Disregard the earlier post. I've found the log as you mentioned. I just
did not fully understand what you wrote. Thank you very much.

Are there any cases that cause this event to not be logged?
