LG drive suck for this you can't just rcp1 the firmware i'll have a ganders again but last time i looked for my combo drive i could only change it 5 times and then i had to use a little proggy (sorry cant rememebr name at mo) which then gave me the 5 region changes back but after doing this 5 times it wont work any more.

Hope that made sense
