"Can't Read Disc" Error After Match

Hi guys, I was just looking for some help and/or suggestions on how to fix the error I mentioned above. So since earlier this evening I've been trying to play Project M. I got it working for a little while. Then I decided to pop in Melee to play for a little bit.

When I put melee in my Wii, it came up with an error saying that it couldn't read the disc. I took the disc out and (due to my N64 instincts) blew softly into the disc drive in an attempt to dislodge any dust. I tried to play Melee again, and I got the same error. I thought, "Oh well, I don't need to deal with it now, I might as well go back to Project M." Upon going back to Project M, I found that upon finishing a match, the Wii would always give me an *Unable to Read Disc* error.

Around this point I noticed that my Melee disc was scratched in a circular shape. So far I've assumed that it was from something to do with the Wii's disc reading head. Either because of a problem that it was having before, or because of me blowing in the disc bay. My Brawl disc remained largely unscratched. That is, it has no more scratches now than it did before this whole fiasco.

I've been looking around online, and people (in response to Brawl players) often suggest one of three things:

1. Send your Wii back to Nintendo, which will fix your Wii and let it play Brawl again.
2. Buy a Nintendo lens cleaning kit, shown here, and clean your Wii.
3. Buy a Tri-Wing screwdriver and open your Wii up to try to identify and fix whatever the problem may be.

I was just wondering what people here might suggest in response to my particular question.

Thank you so much for your help!

Until you fix it, I would say just switch to USB loading Project M. Make or acquire an iso backup of your SSBB on your computer, get a 8GB USB, then use WBFS Manager to format your USB to WBFS format then put then use the same tool to put the iso onto your USB. Finally, get a USB Backup Loader on your wii (I recommend CFGLoader) and plug in your USB backup of Brawl, then on your USB loader, turn Ocarina codes on and turn the hooktype to VBI. Finally launch the game.

This should allow you to play Project M, but your disc drive will still be pretty screwed up :c

I hope you have a Gamecube to play Melee, my condolences if you dont.

Please post in english. I'll post back for you in portuguese but remember to post in english next time.

(portuguese) Tenha: Homebrew Channel, Cartão SD de 2gb ou menos com USB Loader GX ou Configurable Usb Loader, Pen Drive formatado em WBFS (que você já tem) com a ISO do brawl nele. Tendo isso, Vá no site do PM e baixe a versão fullset Homebrew (se quiser jogar online baixe a wi-fi safe). Após baixar coloque a pasta CODES e a Project M na raíz do seu SD. Depois coloque o SD no seu Wii, abra o jogo no seu usb loader e selecione Ocarina ON.
