NeoMayhem Posted September 6, 2003 Share Posted September 6, 2003 Change the region on your drive ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HellBender Posted September 6, 2003 Share Posted September 6, 2003 Right click on My Computer, go to Properties, Hardware tab, Device Manager. Find your DVD-ROM, right click on it and go to Properties. In one of the tabs, you can change the region of your DVD player (dont remember exactly which one, I dont have access to a DVD-ROM right now...). Be careful, though. You can only do this 5 times in the whole LIFE of the DVD-ROM. Although, there are loads of cracks that let you get around that, and a brand new top of the line DVD-ROM costs only about $30 anyway.

NeoMayhem Posted September 6, 2003 Share Posted September 6, 2003 what about my regular home dvd player? Best bet if you legally own the DVD is to rip it to a computer and remove the region junk, then burn a new copy that is region free :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
