Cyclic Redundancy Check Error!

Dear Reader,
If you have seen this error, then guess your pocket is having some wings! Don't worry as people get this error mainly while accessing/copying content from the DVD Media. What's the fix?


You might have observed that even though your DVD is perfectly fine, you might wonder why you are still getting this error! We get more frustrated when the very same DVD absolutely works fine when it runs fantastic in our friend's system :)

Well mate, the problem must be the Optical drive's DVD Lens. If possible, open the drive and carefully clean the lens. If it works, you are lucky! Else
you might need to buy a new one with no choice!

Note: You could better use a Lens Cleaner DVD that is available in shops for marginal Rs 125/-. This would help to some extent in avoiding the problem.

no disc/unknown disc Error Message - Possible cause

To all the computer freaks who use the CDs/DVDs/VCDs regularly in the players, this is a common message that pops up regularly in a little bit older machines.




Fix: The lens of the DVD Writer could be dirty or misaligned. Purchase a good lens cleansing disc or if you can - open the writer and clean it carefully (Using an ear bud dipped in isopropyl alchohol).
Note:- If its under warranty - Never open it. I mean enjoy by calling your vendor :)
