Explanation Chkdsk ran on one of the volumes when the computer restarted.
A log file, bootex.log, was created and stored in the root of the volume.
This file states whether Chkdsk encountered any errors and, if so, whether
they were fixed.
I cannot find the 'bootex.log' file.
I have run:
1. EMSA Disk Check Version 1.0
2. HD Tune
Tests do NOt seem to indicate that the Harddrive is bad.
I have NOT had this error again.
Thank You
