    Hi Im living in Oz with an Irish Dell.

    The GF changed my Irish Dell to suit region 1 so she could watch a Canadian copy of "24".
    I had it set up to view Irish and Oz DVDs......eh makes sense.....

    Now as the conversion switch between regions that the LT can do has been exhausted, Im stuck with an Irish and useless Canadian Region 1 set up of options.

    Is anyone familiar with a crack that will just open the damn thing up to all 3relevant regions, or even just set it back the way that is useful.....??

    I just spent an hour trawling sites and cant suss it out..

    Help greatly appreciated before she gets home and I have to be cranky at her ... Please save our future relationship

    cheers
    DM

    Download and use a program called AnyDVD from Slysoft, will fix all your problems without tinkering with the drive settings and region codes. I have used it before with no problems.

    I recommend seeing how it plays out for the 30 day trial and if you think its worth it sure give it a go.
