Burnout for GC problem
I bought the first burnout for GC at Gamerush for $10 used and everytime I get to the second race on the second prix, I get the stupid "Error has occured" on my screen, anyone else experience this with Burnout?

Is there any scrathes on the disc itself? fingerprints?
does it do it with multiple discs or just this one? If the latter, it is a problem with the laser and not the game; if the former, return the disc to the store and get another copy.![Wink :wink:](./images/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif)
The only other thing is that my cube did the same thing: after five minutes it would display a disc read error; I sent it to ninty and they fixed it citing a defective disc mechanism..whatever that means.

The disc is scratchless and the store doesn't have another copy of the game, its a shame because I really really wanted to beat burnout. I will admit that Midway arcade Treasures 2 did it last night, I don't understand why its doing it, It has plenty of space in my entertainment center for cooling and its clean. I remember anotehr game that did it a lot was MK : Deception but I had no problems with that for a while, just burn out likes to do it on that one race. I am just fustrated.....

Things get old and things break. Everything is subject to Entropy so don't feel bad or take it personally. Just try to keep it in good shape. Also I would suggest buying a console that looks indentical and switching it out once it works. A used one wouldn't hurt either but other then that all I can tell you is, that's that.Dreamcast4life wrote:The disc is scratchless and the store doesn't have another copy of the game, its a shame because I really really wanted to beat burnout.

I really think its the console not the games..especially if it does this with more than one game..Dreamcast4life wrote:The disc is scratchless and the store doesn't have another copy of the game, its a shame because I really really wanted to beat burnout.

I would try cleaning the laser...and if that fails, sending it to ninty for repairs. Or if you want http://www.xboxrepairguide.com has replacement lasers/other parts for the cube. Last I checked, cube lasers were $20
If you end up wanting to part with the console, I'll buy it. I could always use the spare parts.

ok, tonight I play MAT2 and Hitman 2, had no problems yet. I like burnout 1 because its a simplistic fun racer. I have burnout 2 for the crash mode. If things get old how come i still have the NES I had as a child and it still works? just a thought. I think the laser should be cleaned,what are suggestions without harming it, I don't want a malfunctioned cube. My hours at my job went down so I barely have enough to buy anything now. sorry for being EMO lol

I have a extra working cube that I could sell ya if it comes to that..I think it might still be under warranty.

I will PM you smiley if its needed. The music in the game is bad, I couldn't stand it. I love the gameplay though, the cube has been working ok but the game hasn't. same goes to a copy of kirby super star I bought, I know this is off the topic but can a dead battery cause a game to malfunction? Kirby uses saving in it and if I can find a way to fix it I'd be happy
