Answer
No.
DVD players play from one region at a time. You can reset that region 4 times, before the firmware disables that particular DVD drive. It does not matter if it is a laptop DVD drive or a desktop DVD drive.

It does not matter if your laptop is an Advent, or a Toshiba, or an Acer or a Dell.

end of line

hi

i have a Toshiba satellite, its about 14month old.

recently it has been making funny noses every time i use the dvd player, many times it would not even read many of my dvds. lately it had not been reading anything at all, though when i use the same dvd on my other laptop, they work fine!

is my dvd player dead ? is there a way to test the dvd palyer ? is there a why to fix or change the dvd player with out of getting a new laptop ?

Answer
My Toshiba's DVD player died every Christmas for 3 years. Fortunately, I bought a 3 year warranty so each DVD replacement was free and included a free loaner. After the last warranty service, I sold the machine and bought a new HP with a new 3 year warranty. On day 31, the DVD died again.

The DVD dies in stages. First, it stops writing, then it stops reading, finally it stops ejecting.

If you don't have an external HD for backup, backup to DVDs while the DVD is still working. If you arent under warranty, the replacement DVD may cost a few hundred dollars.
