Default Philips DVD player DVP642/37 - freezes up

Original firmware?
I have a DVP5990 with modified firmware. Occassional it acts up.
Unplugging the power for a few minutes has restored functions.

It will be playing fine, but then just stops, with the picture
frozen. But not at the same place each time, and on multiple
discs.

If possible, I need this to work because it plays DivX files.

Any suggestions? Should I try to clean the head?
