    DVD RegionFree, or AnyDVD(Thank you SS) - not free if obtained legally.. but cheap enough. They remove the region protection on the fly.

    Yup just want to play different region dvds on my computer so thought it was worth a go, have found a site with a downloadable trial version of one program which does it

    VLC Media Player

    It just ignores your region settings completely.

    Search for your drive on rpc1.org and flash it's BIOS for a permanent fix.

    Will void warrenty if flashed.

    Unless there's another benefit (Better/More media support, faster speeds,fixes,etc.) other than Region fixing: I think flashing the drive is a terrible solution.
    I keep forgetting about VLC. thirdededed!
