I have downloaded Ubuntu 12.04 desktop LTS (701 MB). I tried it in Linux Live USB Creator. After adding this file, it shows that it is a corrupted file. But I didn't get any error while extracting it to the USB stick.

I got error while installing. It shows "Error 5 Input/Output". Please tell me how to fix the Corrupted file. I cannot download it again, because it took 3 days to download for my system.

Can I necro-bump?

Actually, there is a way to repair corrupted ISOs

  1. Grab a torrent of the required ISO
  2. In your client specify the target to 'overwrite' the damaged ISO
  3. The client will now 'Check' the ISO and re-download the corrupted bytes only
  4. Done

If the ISO is corrupted, then you'll have no choice but to redownload it, or order a CD from the Canonical store for it (you'll then need to pay for shipping and the CD).

There's no method to truly fixing a corrupted ISO.
