MD5 hashes are a way of verifying that your file is the correct one and/or that it's not corrupt. There's a few ways to check; for Windows users, try using [http://winmd5.com/ WinMD5] or [http://www.softpedianirsoft.comnet/getutils/System/File-Management/HashMyFileshash_my_files.shtml html HashMyFiles].
==Determining Good Game Dumps==
Most game files can be run through the MD5 generator and checked against one of the value listed on one of these sites:
*[http://renascene.com/ Renascene] PSP Games*[http://www.gametdb.com/ GamecubeGameTDB] GameCube, Wii, Wii U, PS3 Games*[http://datomatic.no-intro.org/ DAT-o-MATIC] Cartridges and digital downloads*[http://releases.pocketheaven.com/ Pocketheaven] Handheld based systems
*[http://redump.org/ Redump] Disc based systems
===Multi-track (PS1/Saturn/DC)===
Certain disc based games, especially those from the PS1 and Saturn, have multiple "tracks" (for the game data and CD audio) and a .bin/.cue or .ccd/.img format. Good dumps (PS1 on NitroRoms are all perfect) will usually have the tracks as separate files, but for everything else, you have to extract each track and check its individual MD5.
1. Open [http://www.isobuster.com/download.php IsoBuster ] and load the .cue or .ccd file.
2. In the left window, right click "Track ##" and select "Extract Track ##", then "Extract RAW Data"
4. Compare the track's MD5 to the one on redump.org. If it, and all the other track values match, you have a good rip.
