Does it turn on?
Those boxes are mostly just motherboards with a hard drive attached. If it turns on but can't read the disc, it'll be as Chompy says and one of the cables has come loose from the drive.

Or the power connection to the motherboard if it doesn't.

In my old Thomson one, the power was soldered.
I haven't looked at the new ones.

Power is on, lights on the display react to the remote control.

Your mum has a red ring that smells like death.

Chances are it's the drive connections.

I've taken it apart, no loose or disconnected wires. It's 'proper fucked' to quote Boyce above.
