Image checksum error

[trobinson017]

Hi,
I'm new to Ubuntu and am trying to install it on a spare PC I have. I downloaded the ISO image from Ubuntu, checked the image with winmd5sum and burned to CD using InfraRecorder per Ubuntu's website. When I try to boot the PC with the CD I get "isolinux: image checksum error, sorry....".

Did I not use winmd5sum correctly? The md5sum displayed matched what I copy/pasted from the Ubuntu Hashes webpage for 8.04.1.i386.

Can anyone advise me on what I did wrong and how to correct it?

Thanks!

Clean the lens in your burner. Check CD integrity before install

Also it could be a bad disk.

Ok, I've verified the CD using IMGBurng software which compared the burned image to the source file. I also was able to start the Ubuntu install on my primary PC but did not actually install the product.

I did use the CD to install Ubuntu on my laptop and it worked fine. So now I have a dual boot laptop. :) But the CD won't boot from my spare PC's CDROM. That CDROM does work fine normally and will boot my Windows XP CD.

Any other ideas?

Thanks!
