Answers
1. Why do I get "file size <> bytes read" when processing (Linux) CD?
CD is usually read only media and therefore the file cannot be changed during processing. The warning is reported because operating system probably has some problems reading volume structure. It seems it correctly reads the file size but when it wants to read the file it reads the wrong file and therefore reads more/less than the size expected. You can observe this yourself if you try to copy the reported file to disk. The size of file on disk will be different than the size of file on CD and will probably match some other file.

2. Why is CDCheck so SLOW?
You probably have checked "Run process in idle priority" in Options and you are running a background application that is using all spare CPU cycles (like SETI@home). Uncheck the option to allow CDCheck to run processes in normal priority.
If you are using Windows NT or 2000 you can check if some application is using all of the CPU by pressing CTRL-SHIFT-ESC to show Windows Task Manager and going to performance tab. If CPU usage is at 100% for a few seconds you should uncheck the "Run process in idle priority".

3. Why am I getting "Insufficient quota to complete the requested service."?
The problem is a consequence of too low system resources being available. There are several things you can try:
A) Try lowering the values under CDCheck-Options-Buffers ("Device read size" and "Circular buffer size").
B) Check that you have enough space on your hard drive and big enough Disk Usage Quota (Explorer - right click - Quota Management).
C) Try installing service packs for Windows
D) Check that you have enough RAM available
E) Try closing all unneccessary running applications

4. Is it possible to change font of result window and general font?
It is possible but requires modifying the cdcheck.ini file.
You can add "GCFont.Font.Name=Your font name" and "GCFont.Font.Size=Your font size" to [FrmOptions] section to change general font name and size.
To change font in Result window you should add "Memo1.Font.Name=Your font name" and "Memo1.Font.Size=Your font size" to [FrmResult] section.


5. Does CDCheck work with DVDs?
Yes! CDCheck works with DVDs the same way as it works with CDs.
