I have a DVD player on my PC which did not have sortware with it. I just found out with a detection program that there is not yet a region set in the player...

How can I set a region on that thing? I cannot play any DVDs on it until I set a region on the DVD player...

Really? I thought if there wasn't a region set, then you could play DVD's from ANY region.

Actually, no.

I've downloaded several programs now, and I found that that actually is 'Region 0'...

Anyway, the problem is solved now. The DVD playing software did not set the region on my DVD player like it's supposed to do, so I used another program.

And yes, I have 'cheat' software, so you don't have to point me to that.
