A Few Days ago i encountered a problem where i recive a Cyclic Redundancy error when trying to install programs off a cd this is happening with all installs off cd's including images of the cd's that were made before the problem i have defraged, check disked, virus scaned, ran tests on my memory, instaled the latest aspi drivers and still have found no problem that should cuase this also i checked the cd's and images all work on other pc's can someone help im out of ideas

either the cd-rom is dirty or broken,,,use a cd-rom cleaner first, and if that fails, get a new one.

This can occur if the laser in the cd-rom is out of alignment or failing

nah thats not it it always happens near the end of an install which can be 5 disks in the first 4 will work a treat. and the images im using were made on a different pc plus this happens with all images and cd regardless of damage or drive

[gerryf]

doesn't matter--I am talking about the PHYSICAL drive. are you saying this occurs on multiple DRIVES or multiple CDs

[GRIMTHEBUNNY]

both i have used two seprate drives multiple cd's as well + the images were obtined over a home network from a diiferent pc so i guess that counts as a third physical drive

[gerryf]

not quite following you, but a crc error on file that has been transferred over the network could be the result of a damaged file--but my sense is that you are also using actual CDs

Slow down, back up

download Everest Home

..and the images...you are accessing them....how? daemo-tools or something?

[GRIMTHEBUNNY]

deamon and alchohol 120%

[gerryf]

you really should not be running both as virtual drives...it can have unexpected consequences....I don't think that is happening here, but it is generally an unwise call

the fact you are getting it on two cd-roms and virtual drives is very, very wierd

I also don't get your report....your showing an odd grouping of sis northbridg and southbridge chipsets....and an unknown motherboard....where's ya get this thing?

[GRIMTHEBUNNY]

computer market i dont know why its saying unknown brand thos its an asus p4 titan tho and i have had it for a while with no probs like this before

[gerryf]

asus never made a p4 titan...do you mean gigabyte? what model number

[GRIMTHEBUNNY]

yeah gigabyte. asus was my old board. model number is GA-8S648FX-775

[gerryf]

That Didnt do the trick but i uninstalled daemon tools after it gave me some trouble today and got use of my cd rom drive and a small percentage of my images allthoug by and large most of the images still dont work but i think that might be a problem with the network as all the images were retrived of the network
