Dear Gurus,

I understand that there are some CD-burning softwares which have built-
in verifying routines to verify the burned disc with the ISO image
file.

However, I am looking for a stand-alone utility that can do the same
thing.

Which is, taking an ISO-image file on the hard disk, and verify it
with a CD (or DVD) that is inside a CD/DVD drive.

Is there such a utility available?

All suggestions are most welcome !

Thank you for reading.

I'm not into installing software that can be done with resident commands
within the OS. There's been a DOS command around for a very long time
called File Compare. If you want to learn about it, I'm sure there are
multitudes of web pages "out there", to visit. If you go to a DOS
prompt, you can type "FC /?", without the quotation marks, and it'll
give you a list of commands and switches, i.e..., /A
You can navigate to where the .iso image is and
type "fc /b ????.iso X:\????.iso" where X = disc drive with iso image on
it. I'm sure there are programs out there that will do it graphically,
but again, I don't like alot of superfluous software on my computer.
Perhaps a portable version might be available. Good luck.

I thank you for the reply.

I do know about the "FC" command and do use it frequently.

However, FC is only used for comparing FILE to FILE.

What I am looking for is a utility that can compare an ISO image file
(xyz.ISO) to a burned CD/DVD based on the same ISO image file.

Maybe one of these will do what you want.

If the source is an ISO image (or other image formats), you could use
ImgBurn to burn+verify.

If the source is a set of folders+files, I am using TreeComp.
