I have exactly the same problem with my cube, I'll try to replace the entire laser because adjusting the laser didn't work. I supose changing the laser is the definitive solution. You can buy it for a very low price (15 - 30 $)
I got the same problem, my laser is already 160ohm, put it down to 80 and still didn't work. I tried different media with different (but ultimately the same) results.
The chip is working because the light goes green and when I boot an original I can get it do display the version ok.
@greenuranium It works now but only after about an hour and a half of messing around. There is a sweet spot on mine at about 190ohm. I swear, at 189 or 191 it doesn't work.
^^ Buy a DVD RECORDER firm NEC !! is great recorder for gamecube.. i had sony recorder and have this same problem.. i change recorder to NEC and 100% working on my VERMATIM DVD-r :D

Try DVD-R
DVD+R Stresses the laser.

Use -R
You can buy MINI DVD-R on w w w (.dottt.) dealextreme (.dottt.) c o m.
Also check by the fan part if you see a red light or green.
If green the modchip is working.

Use dvd-r instead....dvd+r sux xeno dick....also ensure the solder on your direct install flowed properly to the points

you need to make sure your pressing start when you loading a multi disc game.
if the light of the chip stays red. you should check your soldering.

Gamecubes are a pain in the butt!

@RetroRepair
it could be you gamecube itself. Anyway, did you:
1 - tried you unchiped gamecube with an original game before.
1.5 - check if a modchip was installed before (some people keep they chip when selling they gamecube).
2 - Use fstfix (youfile.iso) f t.
3 - burn with clonecd (or imgburn but i never tried) and NOT nero.
4 - make a wired installation with the shortest lenght of wires possible.
5 - lower you laser at 10 unit at the time to prevent you laser to fry.

Just by the sound it's makes, You got an old, dying gamecube here so i hope you used wires for you xenogc. Anyway.
1 - Install you chip.
2 - test it with an orignal game to see if it load then try a backup. If original doesn't boot and used to, check you chip.
3 - if backup doesn't load, lower pot 5 UNIT AT THE TIME(Look of a tutorial on the net like ConsoleWorkshop)
4 - If disk load but doesn't run, look fir that magic (command line)utility FSTFIX.EXE to fix gc iso.

el problema es que tienes que usar mini dvd no dvd normales

it doesn't matter, as long as the iso is burned correctly the GCN will read it on either a dvd or mini dvd

adjust your laser sir.
GatMan183 2 years ago
Its your fault not the chips, you either have a game of the wrong file size for that disc, poor media, or you simply need to adjust your laser..
Either way you look at it your in the wrong

You need to use MINI-DVDs in 1.4 or 1.5GB. That's what GCN uses for its games.

You need to adjust the laser POT... Get a multimeter, slect 2000 ohm and measure.. 150-200 ohm is a good value for reading backups.
