RE: Liteon 5025

Tried to change the dvd player/recorder already but can`t get the damn thing out. There must be some hidden screws or something but the cage that it`s mounted in just won`t be removed.
I have a couple of older dvd player/recorders sitting doing nothing already so a change wouldn`t cost anything but it`s just getting the old one out that`s the problem.
While I`m online, could I also change the hard drive for a bigger one, or is the "operating system" - you know what I mean, within this or burnt onto chips somewhere else or something.

Liteon 5025

Have one of the above machines. Great at first but it`s now stopped recognising dvd`s and some divx discs. It plays some divx and also picture discs and music discs, both MP3 and audio discs. Anyway, I`m pulling my hair out trying to get it to play dvd`s. I tried doing the firmware upgrade but either I`m doing it wrong (the instructions are crap) or it doesn`t recognise the disc that`s been burned with the upgrade. All I could do was to drag the (presumably unzipped file) onto Nero new ISO disc. I tried it on both a cd and dvd but nothing works from this. The disc just goes into load mode for ages then times out.
The disc tray seems to stick a bit and I considered just replacing the dvd player but as it still plays divx`s it can`t be anything to do with that. I guess it must be something in the hard drive, firmware.
I did a complete reset to default but not to any avail.
I got the region free code accepted OK from another thread on here and it went in great but it still doesn`t recognise dvd`s.
Any ideas guys?
