CHKDSK causing BSOD - Help needed

Hi - I've now run into this problem on two computers.

When running check disk (CHKDSK) in XP Home SP2 and XP Pro SP2, and the
computers reboot to complete check disk, I get a blue screen.

The XP Home PC is a Dell Dimension 2.6 GHz CPU with 256 MB of PC 2700 RAM.
This PC is a neighbor's which I formatted and did a clean install using the
Dell supplied operating system disk. I partitioned the hard drive into 3
partitions. XP Home is on C drive.

The check disk utility tried to run on reboot when the Blue Screen came up.
I did not write down the voluminous amount of information and the error info
was not retained because the only way I could restart the computer was to
format and reinstall the operating system. The repair option simply would
not work.

The XP Pro (Retail Version) PC is one I built a couple of years ago. AMD
Athlon 3200 XP+ CPU, 1 GB of PC 3200 RAM. The same thing happened on this
machine. However, I was able to restart it using the Repair option. Of
course, I had to reinstall all the updates from Windows Update. This PC is
running 98SE / XP Pro SP 2 / Vista Beta 2 Build 5384.

I cannot find the BSOD / CHKDSK info on the XP Pro PC. I checked the System
Event logs, but there's nothing in them that seems to indicate a problem
with CHKDSK. Then again, I am not sure what to look for.

CHKDSK usually in a folder called Found, but there is no Found folder on the
PC.

Question 1 - Where is the BSOD / CHKDSK info stored?

Question 2 - Has anyone else encountered this?

One other thing - Both PCs are running IE7 Beta 3.

Thanks

Joe
