does not recognise any discs, loads then says no disc

It means the laser lens is not working and will cost more to repair than the unit is worth.

Have you tried cleaning the laser lens (use a cotton bud)?

If that doesn't cure it then there is nothing you can do.
By the way you may notice there are 2 laser lenses so try cleaning both.
