But my GameCube started out just like that about a year ago. Back then, I got it to read the disks eventually by taking the disk out and putting it back in a few times. The problem seems to have progressed since that time. Now it'll run the following error:
"An error has occurred. Turn the Power Off and check the Nintendo GameCube Instruction Booklet for further instructions."
The instruction manual told me to go to their website which told me this means it's an internal problem. So now they want $50 plus shipping for me to send it in to be repaired. Now I can play my GameCube for about 20 minutes a day. After that 20 minutes, if I try again, it'll run the error in about 30 seconds prior to startup. Right before it runs the error, the sound starts repeating itself for about 5 seconds until the error shows up.
So I've just been waiting for the Wii since it has GameCube playback. If anyone has a solution to this problem though, please let me know. I suppose I could rip it apart, if necessary, since I have nothing much to lose except 20 minutes a day.

I'm not making you use this method, but i had your exact problem, same error, only 20 mins a day.....etc.
Since you really have nothing to lose, you should use this method, it can make that 20 min/ day rise to at least 1 hour/day. then if it still doesn't work, get a wii.
