well guys your my last resort, as of lately my gamecube, no matter what game i play, will start to read the disc and completely restart, previously it would sometimes completely ignore the game and goto the memory card menu, and once i got some error .

Sounds like the same thing that was happening to DreamCast systems awhile back, the laser reader was out of adjustment and the DC could not read the discs properly.

I repaired my DC using a web resource.

I am not sure if a web resource exists for fixing you GC laser.

Anyways, check the DC information and mabey you can figure out something for the GC.

Good luck.

deificide, you can still register your GameCube online, (I just registered mine a few weeks ago) and I really don't think it matters much if it's registered or not.  I hear that Nintendo is pretty good with their warranties... you should at least try.

There's a thread with info about it around here somewhere though.  Supposedly, someone here fixed such a problem by tinkering with his laser assembly.  Check it out.
