| I have had my GC since about '02, and Just recently i have run into a reoccuring glitch- If I leave the lid open before I turn on the cube, i get a red screen saying something about "Fault at 0x000000...... Should be ........." then there follows a whole string of data and offsets and such......... There could be NO memory card or game inserted and this happens. If you wanted to enter the menu, you would have to close the lid, turn on the gamecube with no game in. I take good care of my system, and have never used a cheat device. |

| That didn't happen to you before ? I don't have a NGC, so I don't know if this happens more often, but if it is something similar like a Windows BSoD, it is weird. As pointed out, calling the customer service, if you still have warranty on your console, might help you. At least it doesn't kill your data on your memory cards; but on the other hand you don't know if it may haoppen just when encountering a boss in a hard game; so it should be time to check if a repair would rent (if you don't have warranty anymore; in Germany the minimum warranty usually is two years after buying the device) or if a new GC might be the better choice.

Why would you leave the lid open?  I'm a bit confused, but from what you're saying, the system runs fine if you have a game inserted and close the lid before turning the power on. |

Colleen: On a gamecube, if you leave the lid open it should go into the Gamecube BIOS. Where you can setup things. (thought I rather use the "Hold A button" way  )What happens if you try get into the BIOS in the other ways? (like by not having any disc in the gamecube or by holding A when it starts) You should call the tech support if it bothers you.  |

| It just does it when the lid is open. And, I have already returned the GC, i bought it from Best Buy. They have a 4 year replacement plan. The warranty only covers 90 days. | |||

| I kinda think you're over re-actiing. A screen showing errors is better than games randomly crashing. I'm sure that screen is MEANT to be there in case of errors, not a way to show that the GCN itself is going bad. | |||

| If you can still get into the menu... *shrugs* Personally, I think you could have gotten by without taking it back for an exchange. But whatever suits you. |

| I couldn't tell you, but I would have tested it out with a memory card first. If it did wipe the data, then... yeah. Defective for sure. But if it didn't, then it's more a minor glitch than anything. |

| It only happens if you boot with the lid open? Weird. Say, has anyone had a problem where the joysticks on their controllers don't work right? Mine (both controllers, IIRC) are doing it. If I push the joystick at all, it'll sometimes 'stick' (like if I'm writing stuff in Animal Crossing, it'll go quite a bit past the letter I wanted before stopping), also sometimes it acts like I'm holding a certain direction when I'm not. Unplugging it usually doesn't help, only holding X+Y+Start for a few seconds. |

| HyperHacker: It doesn't do it to me most of the time except when I boot the GC without knowing where my controller his. It is usually under some clothes so the joystick isn't where it's sopposed to be. Oh! And that also happen when I play games with 2 Wavebirds or more, people change frequencies. | |||

| Once I had similar problems as Hyperhacker, found out it as the controller who wasn't fully inserted. JJ64: Possible, but that would be a very rare glitch. It's not common thought. The same thing can happen on computer mind you. |

| The GC BIOS has to initialize memory cards first, and Nintendo cards have a lock system in which the game has to give it some sort of signal to enable write access, so I wouldn't worry too much unless it crashes while saving or you have an unofficial card. | |||
