    I bought the 30$ Aspire AD-1100 DVD Player about half-year ago from Buy.com.

    It is now busted!! ARGH!! This el cheapo product sucks.

    Its just showing a very very dark screen.
    I can barely see anything.

    I tried the blue,green,red connector.
    I tried the yellow,white,red connector.
    I tried the s-video connector.
    All 3 connectors showed the same output.

    No more dvd.. no more mp3.. no more karaoke.. no more vcd for me.. boo hoo hoo.

    Anyone got the same player w/ the same problem? Seem like I'm not the only one according to Fatwallet

    Same problem here. I bought it one year ago. And got no video after I press the "setup" key on the remote.

    Ask for a firmware CD might reset it to the factory default. Hopefully it will light up.

    I called aspire tech support, they resolved the issue by instructing me to press "PSCAN" then "setup" key on the remote, I got my video back.
    The turns out that I don't have a proscan TV.
