Hi Chris,
That error message is frequently associated with CD read errors
particularly if a CD is damaged or corrupted. In your situation
however, it may indicate that your download of the Halo demo is
corrupt. Perhaps your antivirus software damaged the file either
while you were downloading it, or while you were installing it.
Try another fresh download with everything shut off. More tips...
Let's try some basic troubleshooting. If the problem still persists
please post back and we'll try some more steps. Good luck! :-)
1. To see if it's a software conflict: Temporarily disable Startup
programs one at a time, starting with Firewall, Antivirus, and ad
blockers using: http://new.jtsoft2001.com/windows/startup.php
You can lookup what a program does before you disable it here:

2. Run a virus scan at: http://housecall.antivirus.com Afterwards
Download & Run Spybot from: http://security.kolla.de to find any
Trojans, Adware, or Spyware which could clog up your system.
3. Click My Computer / Rightclick the Drive & Choose Properties
/ Run the "Disk Cleanup..." / Next Click the "Tools" Tab and run
the "Error-Checking" and "Defragmentation" utilities.
4. Go to the Windows Update site for everything under Critical and
Recommended: http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com Some games
