Yeah my gamecube does the same thing.  It pisses me off.  I once contemplated murdering that purple little box, but just couldnt bring myself to doing it.  Ill have to deal with it until I can purchase another one.  

What works for me is opening and closing the lid until it starts to work.  This is the reason I hardly play cube anymore.
