Hi,

I would be grateful if anyone could provide me with some help or
information.
I have acquired some games from their US and on the discs it claims they are
for their (US) use only.
When I put the game in my player (United Kingdom) it doesn't play / disc can
not be read.
Is there a way around this or am I up the creek?

Many thanks for any help.

Steve

Buy freeloader, which can be found at play-asia, liksang, ebay or

In case you don't know what it is: a boot disc, after loading it, you
can swap your US disk and play it.

Many thanks for the information.
It means I haven't wasted my money!
Also for the really prompt response.
