Oh, your disc is scratched up. You need to get someone to send you some of the files that you're not able to get off your scratched disk.

could i try to take it to a store and see if they could clean it?

You could try.

Another option would be to download an .iso of the Halo 1 CD. You -ARe- allowed to have a backup of the data as long as your CD Key is legit you'll be okay.
