First and foremost i did a search on gamecube/ problems and found no threads similar to mine. This question goes out to everyone out there with improvisational skills now my gamecube is getting on in age and having trouble reading discs antihacker told me of a trick today to fix that clean the lens which i did and slide it all the way down on the track so it doesnt scroll to far out to where it cant read the discs the problem is after about three minutes of play with any game it pans back out to near the very top which i believe generates the disc read error i tried using a folded up dollar bill to prevent this (( hey you gotta spend money to fix problems right ? )) but it popped the disc out when it tried to pan again so does anyone know of a way to possibly fix this problem for free?

That'll only really work if it's within the warranty border, though, since he said "For free".
My GC's jerking me around too. It will read discs, and when it does I can play the game for however long I need, but it's totally unpredictable, and more often than not tells me that there is No Disc. =/ And it's within the 24 month warranty, so...
A little trick; If a disc is successfully read, the Cube should make a little double-beep about three-five seconds after closing the disc cover (Or if you just turned the Power On, it beeps immediately after the opening screen for the Cube finishes.)

If it's still within a year of being bought (I think) then you can just take it back to where you bought it and get a whole new GC claiming it is faulty, which it would be in this case. I say 1 year because a year is standard warranty for a GC.
