I have XP home. For the life of me I can't find the log generated by
Scandisk....if there
is one. Anybody know ?

Dude!! Long time no see!! You might remember me from .cafe before I
decertified.

I think the .log you're after is either in the root, the windows folder, or
the system32 folder.

I forget which. And I'm not going to scandisk a 250 GB drive just to find
the .log file

You will find the chkdsk log entry in the Application log of Event Viewer.
To access the Event Viewer
.. Go to Control Panel > Administrative Tools> Event Viewer > Application.
.. Look for the Event from the source "WinLogon".
