Parameters

Drive

Specifies the drive on which the track is to be verified (0 = default drive, 1 = A, 2 = B, and so on).

DeviceCat

Specifies a FAT16, FAT12 or FAT32 drive.

Value	Description
08h	FAT16 or FAT12 drive (Will fail on a FAT32 drive.)
48h	FAT32, FAT16, or FAT12 drive. This value is supported on Windows 95 OEM Service Release 2 and later.

Note: Because this call may be implemented in the device driver, the 48h form of this call may fail on FAT16 or FAT12 media. Therefore, applications making the 48h form of this call must fall back on the 08h form if the 48h call fails.

VerifyBlock

Pointer to an FVBLOCK structure that specifies the head and cylinder to verify. The FVBLOCK structure has the following form:

FVBLOCK STRUC
    fvSpecFunc    db  0   ;special functions
    fvHead        dw  ?   ;head to format/verify
    fvCylinder    dw  ?   ;cylinder to format/verify
    fvTracks      dw  ?   ;tracks to format/verify
FVBLOCK ENDS

The fvSpecFunc member can be 0 or 2.

Return Values

If the function is successful, clears the carry flag. Otherwise, sets the carry flag and sets the AX register to one of the following error values.

Remarks

Verify Track on Logical Drive returns 0002h (ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND) if the specified drive number is invalid.
