I'm surprised no one else said this (though cleaning it could be a good idea), but...
Where is your system situated? When it starts to get hot, it gets INTENSELY loud, with fans blaring etc Make sure it's got enough room to cool, and see if that makes a difference.
Also, I once had a piece of the sheet of plastic that covers the game sitting on top of my disk, and only saw it at the last minute, as it was being pulled into the machine. I grabbed it in time, but it could've gotten sucked in there. Any chance something like that might have happened? It could seriously mess up your machine.
Oh, and whoever said "warped disk" could be right, too.
