Same thing happened to me. Call Scans return number 01204 474766, they should be able to help you out! My missus wasn`t too pleased either... "Why do you always have to FIDDLE with things?"!
They have a new batch of players due in on Thursday. Out of interest, did you try upgrading directly from 1.64? Some people said it was OK to do this, others said to go via 1.80.

Scan were very helpful (once I got through). Don`t bother with e-mails just call the returns number. They should sort you out with a replacement, although it might be dependant on who you speak to. Phoning mid-afternoon appears to be the easiest time to get through to them, the lines seem to be busiest in the morning.
Just for the record, this is the first weekend I`ve had at home for weeks, and no DVD / CD player : ( Oh well, should be sorted next weekend!
