Re: OT : Bypassing DVD rom region coding

Thanks Mark.

My drive is RPC-2 ie hardware protected and there is not yet a 
firmware patch to bypass this. I've taken a look at the link you 
posted and also found their region free software that is meant to 
work as well. I've downloaded the application and will give it a try.
