My Wii has stopped reading discs. Last night I was playing Brawl and my Wii started making weird sounds. It would do this thing where the game would make some weird sounds and freeze for a little bit, and a little while later it would work again. After having it do this for a couple of minutes, I got "An error has occured, eject the disc, turn the power off and consult the manual." I've had problems with ssbb before so I didn't think of it and turned my Wii back on after a few minutes. When I turned it back on my Wii wouldn't read the game at all. This has happened before, so I ejected it and put it back in a few times until my Wii would read it. When I finally got it to read the disc, I started the game up. Immediately after I started it up it made some weird sounds. This went on for about 20 seconds and then I got the error message again. I tried to play it a few more times and got the same results. I wanted to see if it was just the game that was the problem or if it was my Wii so I tried out a few more games. I tried other Wii games, Gamecube games, and some Wii backup games (DVD Read error 1167 on neogamma), none of which worked. I've been playing it all week since Goldeneye was released, and haven't had any problems until last night. I've never had this problem with any game other then a few times with ssbb, but I always managed to get it to work. It did... fall a few feet on Sunday, but like I've said, I've been playing it all week without any problems until last night.
I have a NTSC-U 4.1 softmodded Wii (I used this guide to softmod) that I bought in September 2007 if any of that matters.
tl;dr My Wii has stopped reading ALL games.
I REALLY want to avoid sending it into Nintendo if I can. Any help/advice would be appreciated. Thanks.
And I apologize if this was not the correct place to ask this...
