Anyone help me with a region hack for the MSI 8404-A 4x DVD+/-R Recorder? I was busy backing up some DVD's when I got a messgae telling me that I only had 1 allowable change of region left ! This message is quoted in the properties tab for the DVD drive. Cheers Adrian.
I use and excellent program called DVD region free. I'm sure you can get a trial version on the sofware section of this site. I find it invaluable. I use discs from every region I have purchased on the net and have never had to change the region of my drive thanks to this little beauty. It runs in the background and starts when you insert a disc. It also works with all the major software players. Check it out and you won't be disappointed. hope this helps. ;-)
oh and by the way this even works when you've run out of chances to change the region on your drive..
Here is the firmware site. Make sure you use the right one For your drive. http://forum.rpc1.org/dl_firmware.php?category=4&manufactor=21 Jerry
