Hi, This error message means “the operating system cannot read or write the data correctly”. You can prevent “Data Error Cyclic Redundancy Check” by performing a set of simple procedures. If you encounter this error while your computer is reading data from your CD or DVD disc, the first thing you can do is to eject the disc and clean its surface with a soft cloth. If are trying to run a setup from DVD/CD then there is chance of setup files being corrupt. Use Chkdsk.exe to check for disk errors on the Windows drive 1. Click Start, type cmd in the Start Search box, right-click cmd in the Programs list, and then click Run as administrator.

If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type your password, or click Continue. At the command prompt, type Chkdsk /f, and then press ENTER. Press Y when you are prompted to check the disk next time that the system restarts. Close all applications, and then restart the computer. Note: During the restart process, Windows checks the disk for errors and then starts. Refer to the link “Check your hard disk for errors” You may run a Checkdsk to repair problems related to bad sectors, lost clusters, cross-linked files, and directory errors.

Note: When you run the checkdisk, there are chances of losing data so you can take a backup before running checkdisk. For reference: Thanks and Regards: I.
