libya 115 Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 If I attempt to play a DVD on my laptop/notebook it says 'you have 6,5,4,3 etc chances to choose a permanant region for DVD. I gave up at 2. Is there any over-ride function or will I have to go for region 2 which is which most of my DVD's are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meerkat Posted March 12, 2008 Share Posted March 12, 2008 I use DVD Region Free It basically traps the region bit before Windows can use it, so lets you play DVDs from any region at any time. There might well be a free piece of software that does the same thing, but have used this pay program for years and it's always done the trick.
