I changed the Regionkode heres is how i did. I took apart the coputer an took out the C-cube mpeg-card ho is lokated on the left side. You haf to take some screws away , if you cant do it right you might destroy your comuter so be carefull. But it workt fine for me. Yes one more thingwhen you have done this you must play a DVD in that region you want to have in the future, the first dvd you play is the region you will havein the future. Gateway nows how you can get a code free player (with some programme or something) but they wont tell me but they say it exsist but ihavent found it yet. > > tgj@gil.com.au
