Corrupt/Not Corrupt Image ?

I am in the process of doing a new/clean install of Win XP Pro. I have saved the image on my disk (drive E) and also to a DVD. When I try and verify the image on my hard drive I get the dreaded "Image is corrupt" however when I verify the image that's stored on the DVD I receive no error messages at all! Can anyone provide me with an explanation. (Chkdsk on E shows no irregularities on the drive).

 

A next step would be to generate a hash of each file and see if they are the same.

If they are it would imply that they are either both corrupt, or both OK
More interesting would be if they differed - that would suggest that the one on the disk really is corrupt.
