(ie not limited to playing Zone 2 DVDs). The DVD driver seems to be set to Zone 2 (viewed in Device Manager) - but when I play a Zone 4 DVD it seems to work OK. I am concerned that it might be allowing a certain number of changes before locking me out.<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Sun, 09 Jul 2006 15:46:29 GMT https://community.sony.it/t5/pcs-accessories/xl-100-dvd-world-zone/m-p/133221#M25657 argegno 2006-07-09T15:46:29Z Re: XL 100 - DVD World Zone ? https://community.sony.it/t5/pcs-accessories/xl-100-dvd-world-zone/m-p/133222#M25658 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Nearly all DVD drives sold in the UK are allowed to run 'so many'times before you are permanently locked to the region that you choose. We are region 2 so unless you plan on re-setting your OS every-so-often, I'd think about locking this down now.<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Sun, 09 Jul 2006 20:49:07 GMT https://community.sony.it/t5/pcs-accessories/xl-100-dvd-world-zone/m-p/133222#M25658 HITS-UK 2006-07-09T20:49:07Z Re: XL 100 - DVD World Zone ? https://community.sony.it/t5/pcs-accessories/xl-100-dvd-world-zone/m-p/133223#M25659 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Hits<BR /><BR />It's locked in the firmware of the DVD drive, not the OS.<BR /><BR />As a lot of drives are RPC2 now it's not easy to do.<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Mon, 10 Jul 2006 13:35:24 GMT https://community.sony.it/t5/pcs-accessories/xl-100-dvd-world-zone/m-p/133223#M25659 kee-lo_ 2006-07-10T13:35:24Z
