Xbox HD-DVD not playing HD DVD's

My son who is in the army and has little time asked me to write this. I bought for him for Chirstmas a HD-DVD player for his 360 he installed it and it will play DVD's but when he puts in the King Kong it will stop after the titles or not play at all. He took the one I sent him back and got another one and it's the same problem.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

    Although this is not strictly within the scope of this forum, I'll try to help.

    Has he tried a different HD disc than King Kong (To rule out a defective disc)

    Can it play ANY HD at all (To rule out failure of the blue-laser in the drive)

    Ask him to make sure he uses the usb cable that came with the drive. Also ask if he has an internet connection to update his firmware to the latest one.

    Has he connected to Xbox Live to download the most recent firmware updates

    Do you have any other discs to try

    He is on his second HD dvd player for the xbox and each player would play the universal logo on the King Kong disc and then just freeze up...any help would be appreciated, and this was on each King Kong Disc. We have tried everything.

    Any help would be appreciated

    Thanks
