I've change the region of my dvd drive for 5 times and now they prompt me I can't change it anymore!

Anyway to break it and change to region-free?

Thank you.

would be better to add to title to better reflect the issue to something like
how to change region setting for dvd-rom? max resets reached,you also neglected to say what drive


dvdfab or anydvd can read any disc from any region regardless of dvd player setting,set either program to region free or set remove region setting or such like

you can always flash the firmware.. there are updated firmwares even for dvd-rom drives.

I have a burner that I tried to flash region free.
It flashed, but it didn't do anything as far as region settings.
When it had one change left, I flashed it back to the original firmware - but I still have only one change left.

OTOH, I did flash a rom drive successfully to region free.
