This one bit me a while back.  Took so long to track it down, I was sure 
to document in our internal knowledge base.  Try this:

Sometimes, check_nt will return "Invalid Drive" when attempting to check 
disk space. If this happens, check the Security tab in the drive 
properties and make sure that SYSTEM is included in the list, at least 
for read access.
