BH200 freeze, no HD-DVD love, etc...

So in the year 2012 is there any love left for the BH200?

I played a HD-DVD yesterday (Thursday). Put one in today (Friday - it's really Saturday, but that's how long I've been muffing around with this thang) and the damn thing no longer reads any HD-DVD I put in. Also I can't load the firmware, initialize HD memory, BD memory, set factory default. Blurays and DVDs are fine. I've seen a few OLD threads talking about RMAs and such, but that's obviously out of the question.

Can anyone help a brother out, or is that just it. Kaput. syonara, c'est la vie?????

Thanks for the idea. However it didn't work. Oh well. I now have a bluray player I can give as a gift I guess.
