Remove region code?

Is there a way to remove the region code from a Philips DVD+RW drive which came with an 8400?

    Yes, there are ways to make a DVD drive "region free".  It is a subject
    that is forbidden by Dell for discussion here.  We all agreed to this
    when we accepted the Terms of Use of this Forum.  But, if you were to do
    a Google Search for "DVD region free" or something like that, you will
    find what you seek.  However, some of the methods you discover may void
    the warranty on the drive.

    Thanks for your reply; I wasn’t aware that this was an illegal thing to do!
