A few visitors may recommend DVD genie. This is in fact useless if your DVD drive is region locked (like mine is >:( )

There is a small program you can download that tell you the specs of your drive, but for the life of me I can`t remember what it is, anyone?

There is a tool you can use to find out your drive`s spec, the rather oddly named DVD Region Info. If you find that your drive has region protection, you can get a small program called DVD Region Free, which lets you play any region DVD`s on any drive. However, it costs £35-ish reference to "cracked software" removed by moderator

Have a look here:

And see if there`s any region free firmware for your drive. Once you`ve flashed it using region free firmware you can play anything on it just like a chipped/hacked standalone

If you don`t fancy flashing your drive`s firmware then you can use DVD Region Free. It will alow you to play any region DVD (including RCE discs) on a locked RPC2 drive. I have been using it for several months now with no problem.
