just pull it apart and check for any overly tight screws, did u buy it off ebay? as i know same thing happened strait out of the box with one my brother brought, som no name brand, had a screw stopping the disk going in he simply removed it and everything worked

[Trust33]

have you got pics of it..Yes its ebay

[nemz]

its either this one or similar

[Chris Rogers]

where are you and what brand is it?

[Trust33]

im in sydney the brand is redpower the model is 386 series dvd

Chers for the reply nems.but actually what i should have asked was if you had pics of the unit apart to actually point out where the problem was.

[nemz]

the screw was through the top of the deck, and could be seen once opened in the slit where the disk is entered, what area are you from?

[Chris Rogers]

ok have you removed the shipping screws? there will be two screws through the top if the unit that will look out of place. remove them and it shoudl work.

its funny when you want somthing like pics 2 work for you they wont load.

So ill xplain.The only screws that are visible on the unit are the mounting ones on the side and the ones that hold the heat sink to the unit.

Could it b that the screw is actually under the casing?

i will pull it apart and see what i can see then.

take a photo of the top BEFORE you pull the top off. also fixed your post. I'm not a MSN chat person

[Trust33]

im still having trouble uploading the pics.

But i have identified the problem,chris i took the liberty of taking a photo b4 hand,just in case i forgot.Annyway to cut a long story short it is the circular plastic counterweight that sits atop the cd when it is loaded into the deck.it was tilted downwards and it stopped the cd from making it all the way in.i have yet to rehook the deck back up 4 a test run.its so bloody hot in sydney atm that im waiting 4 a cooler day 2 work on the car.but,when i do im pretty sure it will work.but yeah,i will keep you updated.
