Hi All:
I just ran sfc /scannow and I was prompt several times
for the winxp pro disk even though it was in the cd rom.
I just clicked "retry" and it continued but I did this
several times. I assume that each prompt was asking for
installation source (although I do have SP1 installed) as
it was replacing a file. Is there anyway to know what
file changes took place from sfc /scannow? Is there a
log anywhere? I checked event viewer and I could not
find anything.
thanks

It is in event viewer in the System area. Look for Windows File
Protection entries.
