I can get the home page up on the tv where it says cyberhome. i put disc in and it says loading and then it says bad disc. what does a bad disc mean?

Normally I would say clean the laser lens, but I actually had the exact same model with the exact same problem, and that didn't work. I was able to get mine to work sometimes by turning it off and on and unplugging it, but even after opening it up, re-lubricating the gears, and replacing a few capacitors near the reader, I never did find a permanent solution.
I guess this isn't what you wanna hear, but I think its an untraceable problem with the motherboard.

The laser lens could just be dirty, or it could be on it's last leg.
I'd recommend cleaning the laser first, laser replacement would cost more then the machine itself is worth.

These dvd players have problems working with some brands of dvd's. Here is a report from a customer who had contacted, the now defunct CyberHome customer service department at got this response.I hope this helps you with your problem. we do not recommend the use of Maxell, Memorex or TDK brands of

the draw does not open,why?

maybe the laser lens dirty,dry capacitor on the power suply or flat connector of the mainboard to the laser lens in bad conditions.

Maybe your dvd got some capacitors dried on the power supply.
But you can also clean the laser lens maybe is dirty.

This dvd's fails because a dry capacitors on the alimentation source you need to send to a repair service center.

You have bad filter caps in the power supply c10 and c11 need replaced and unplug unit when not using as power supply stays on always,,,,as long as its plugged in its on(P>S>) that is

are they bootleg dvd's? if not try getting a lense cleaner because wrong disc means it's reading your dvd's as .mov files which only play on quicktime in a computer. if it reads your cleaner as wrong disk too then get yourself a refund cuz it has a motherboard malfunction.

If you are using a copied disc try a real one. But this model of DVD Player is made so cheap. it sound like the laser assembly is bad or the motor that spins the disc is stuck or going out. If you are good at electroninics you could take the lid off load a disc and see if it spins if not give it a spin clockwise and see if it takes off. You probably should replace unit for price of a new one.
