So i have a dvd player...front loading with no tray, put in a 9.4 GB dvd which it did not play. Took it out and now it wont play any discs at all. It wont even spin there. WTF happened? I dont want to spend 100 bucks to get it fixed if it something i can do myself. Its part of my home stereo so i dont exactly want to use my ps2 or computer for the next 6 months to watch movies. i want my surround sound!
"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"
You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

If it doesn't read anything the laser could be stuck at the front of the read line. I wouldn't self medicate on this one. Have a pro look at it.

My advice is to bring it to a repair shop and get an estimate on the unit.
The advice I would absolutely not give is to find a large store where the exact same DVD player is being sold, buy it with a credit card, wait a few days and then return the defective unit (after you clean it thorougly) in the new one's box. This is completely immoral, and while you would basically get a brand new DVD player for $0, you'd probably burn in hell. Probably.

Well, you can always buy a new one.Pakwah said:
Its far too time consuming to spend 20min making an account on one of these tekkie sites that can show you how to fix literally anything. Just throw it out and buy a new one. Its only a few hundred dollars. That money helps the economy go round.
What's better. 20min (and actually learning something useful like how to repair stuff) or -($200 to 300?)

Oh Crap! I'm burning.:crackup: Seriously though, no harm done, electronics that are well treated should last atleast a year. So I support Diablo's approach. Otherwise, if you wanna be moral - electrnics repair shop.diablo said:
