Is there a text file log that details the results of the CHKDSK scan for WXP
Pro. If so, what is file name?
 
You will only find limited reports in Event Viewer.

You can access Event Viewer by selecting Start, Administrative Tools, and
Event Viewer. When researching the meaning of the error, information
regarding Event ID, Source and Description are important.

You could try HD Tune (freeware) for information.
Download and run it and see what it turns up.

If chkdsk runs during the startup phase then its log is recorded
where all other logs are recorded, in the event logger (eventvwr.exe).

If by some chance you're running it from the command line, then you could
create your own log by putting
ResultsLog.txt
Click to expand...

at the end of the command you are using.
 
Thanks,
I found it the list in event log! Had failed to view the properties of
event to see the log info.
