How to view bootup check disk results

Did you miss the chance to view bootup chkdsk results when your computer rebooted? Whether your computer rebooted with an error while you're away or you scheduled an automated check disk upon bootup, you might not get enough time to examine bootup chkdsk results. The good news is that Windows NT will save this information in the Events Log.

• Open Event Viewer
   

  Windows NT 4.x:

  Select "Start | Programs | Administrative Tools | Event Viewer" from the Start Menu.

   

• Select "Log | Application" from the main menu.
   
• Scroll through the events until you see an event with "Autochk" as the "Source".
   
• Double click on the selected event to view the results of previous bootup check disk operations.
