Look on google for a program called CDmage,this will scan your .bin for any corrupt sectors and fix them where necessary.Hope it works for you.

Yep I posted this before because a number of people got corruption in their halo bin. Download CDMage and Scan for Errors/Corruptions under the Actions menu.

Usually althought awin32 application may say it's corrupted, cdmage will fix it once you open it. If you can't open it even using cdmage, then your bin is far beyond corruption.

if your bin is too corrupted I suggest you download the hw2 rip, if you don't mind, off dwerkz, a pretty good games site.
