I just got a Pioneer region free dvd drive from http://www.overclockers.co.uk, i got dvd genie but it still says that i have to change the code on the drive, and that i can change it 4 more times. Help, i am trying to use windvd and powerdvd.

Contact OCUK and explain the problem, they should sort it out fairly fast.

hiya m8 what dvd is it mines a pioneer 16 x40 105
i had to make mine region free whci is simple if yours is the same as mine let me know and ill help you look for the firmware:)

get drive info this will tell you what your drive is model wise.:)

If DVD genie changes the region, but cant reset the counter, then it probably means the drive is hardware region locked. You can download cracked firmware from http://www.firmware.com.bi/ which will either unlock it, or reset it back to 5 changes whenever you run the crack :)

I got a crack for my hitachi drive from there, and I've accidently locked it to certain regions loads before, and the firmware crack just resets it back to 5 changes :D

My drive is a pioneer dvd-rom 105 1.22, i think i got the right one from the site but not sure.

p.s i got the instructions from http://www.geocities.com/gibler666/ are these right?
