Nope! No manner of "/V" seems to do a thing. It is ignored...!...

C:\chkdsk /v C:

CHKDSK has NOT checked this drive for errors.
You must use SCANDISK to detect and fix errors on this drive.

Volume P C R HARD created 06-25-2005 5:29p
Volume Serial Number is 3843-EC05

8,171,472 kilobytes total disk space
6,931,204 kilobytes free

4,096 bytes in each allocation unit
2,042,868 total allocation units on disk
1,732,801 available allocation units on disk

655,360 total bytes memory
612,608 bytes free

Instead of using CHKDSK, try using SCANDISK. SCANDISK can reliably
detect
and fix a much wider range of disk problems.

| | (Q#1) In the "Folders" section of Windows Explorer I right click
| on
| | "HP_Pavilion (C" then select "Properties". I only get
| information on
| | used
| | space (6.89GB), free space (2.72GB) and capacity (9.61GB).
There
| is no
| | information concerning the total number of ("Top level") folders
| (88) or
| | the
| | total number of files (51,611) on the C: drive.
| | snip
| |
| | Run CHKDSK from a DOS prompt.
| |
| | That only gives total and available disk space, in bytes. It does
not
| give a file
| | count of any kind.
