Hi friends I am Mike from India.

My question is that my DVD is stuck in region 4, which is not my region. And I'm not able to change it back.

Is there any way that I can change it back, I have loads of DVDs that I want to watch.

DVD drive is Samsung SH-224DB/IDDS DVD Burner Internal Optical Drive

RPC 2 drives have a 5 change limit on regions, once the counter gets to 0 your drive is permanently locked to the last region it was set to. Even if you reformat or move the drive to another system it will still be locked to the last region. There are ways to get around it, some models have resetting tools made by 3rd parties to reset the change limit back to 5 and some also have firmware patches to remove the region lock.
