I'm thinking that the reason I see that type of message or get phone
calls for the same is as you know, not a software issue but perhaps a
hardware issue, eg the cd is old, scratched, dirty, deteriorated, been
left in the stack of your kids 50 game cds and been shuffled around like
a deck of cards for ten years :) so all the files may not copy thus the
resulting problems.
