I don't recall what the problem was Joe (you can relate to that, right!!) . The only problem I have now is (cheap) disks. From now on I think I will stick to one brand (memorex dvd-r) and avoid compatibility problems. ----- Original Message ----- From: Cuffy10@xxxxxxx To: computertalkshop@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Saturday, February 05, 2005 2:18 PM Subject: [CTS] DVD drive...... Murrsy Did you get your DVD drive problem solved ? I read something when I installed mine about it locked to a certain region when you inserted the first disk. It also said something about it could only be changed 5 times ??? That's not your problem is it ?
