This is the first & only one I've ever had. Zenith - about 6 years old -- so DK how to diagnose: Fix or dump?




It won't load DVDs. Either door OPENS or it says CHECK DISK. Tried this with a variety of discs to rule out disc problem.




The weird part is that at the outset of the "attack", it WOULD sometimes play, but mostly not.




Questions:




1. What's causing this?




2. Worth fixing?




3. Potential cost?




4. Recommendations in case I have to dump




Your experience appreciated!!!

Is this a player drive in the computer or a stand alone for the

television? Buy a new one and replace the one you have with a newer

one.


Seriously, an internal "Zenith" drive?
