Do a Google search for DVD Region Free - it may help.

You can try contacting the manufacturer. I think LG will help out if your
LG drive is out of changes. Maybe others will help out as well or offer suggestions. r.

Region Changes are registered in Software not Hardware so don't waste LG or
your time calling them! "namniar" wrote: > You can try contacting the manufacturer. I think LG will help out if your > LG drive is out of changes.

Your could try DVD Genie from http://www.inmatrix.com/genie/ or
http://www.firmware.fr.st/ to find a firmware upgrade. You should be aware that upgrading your drives firmware carries a theoretical risk of trashing the drive, mine upgrade OK.

NO! On DVD drives, the Region Codes are also stored in the drive's
firmware. Youi have to check both the software and hardware.

BAR,
FYI check out LG Service @ http://ca.lge.com/en/proddivergent....Id=&parentId=04 Go to link for DVDWriter, FAQ, DVD ROM (WRITER), see "Do LG provide a last chance recovery procedure." I am not saying for sure that LG will repair the region code for the OP, but it if the alternative to the OP is a unusable drive, then.... Now, you've wasted my time. r. P.S. LG tech support 1 888 542 2623 (for OP) "Yves Leclerc" <yleclercNOSPAM@maysys.com> wrote in message news:OttOtgM$EHA.2540@TK2MSFTNGP09.phx.gbl... > NO!
