The official troubleshooting from Nintendo is-

"Error Occurred. Press the Eject button and remove the disc"

    This indicates a problem with the Wii console and it will need to be repaired. Please call 1-800-255-3700 to discuss available options.

WII unit will not read disk when put in. Screen says there is an error and to remove disk but gives no other directions. What may the problem be?

    "Unable to read the disc" or "Disc could not be read" Messages
    If you are getting one of the above error messages:
    • This message can display if you eject a disc during game play. If this is when the message displayed, make sure that you return to the Wii Menu before changing discs if you wish to play a different game.

    • If your Wii console is laying flat, it may be positioned upside down. Ensure that is positioned right-side up: the game disc slot should be above all three buttons and the SD Card slot.

    • Ensure that you are properly loading a Game Disc. insertdisccorrect.gif
      • If your console is placed vertically, the disc label will face to the right.
      • If your console is placed horizontally, the disc label will face upwards

    • Check our list of specific game issues to see if there is a known issue with that particular title.
    • If you know you are inserting the Game Disc correctly, but are still have the same problem with only one game (or if you only have one game), try cleaning the Game Disc by following the disc cleaning procedures (click here).

    If the above information did not resolve the issue or it is happening with most or all of your games, a repair is necessary. Please note: So that our technicians are able to duplicate the issue, please include at least one sample game disc that causes this message to appear when played. Click here to set up a repair.

Whenever we try to load a game disk a error

The first step is to check the disc. If you are sure this is not aproblem with the game disc, then this is usually a problemwith either the laser inside of the Wii's drive, or some other issuegoing on inside of the DVD drive. The following website sells the DVD drive mechanisms and does repairs on the Wii as well:

Console problem

I'm having the same issue. Doesn't matter what game disk is in, after a little while of playing, the screen goes black with the message that disk can not be read. Eject disk and power off, then power back on and re insert disk. No error code is given. I just bought this console yesterday and this error has happened probably 10 times already. Wanted to get online and see if this was a common wii problem or I just possible got a bad one.
