Silver PS2 Dvd Region free problems.

Hi! I recently bought a silver Playstation 2 after previously owning an original black model. But when i loaded up my dvd region free xploder disc and went to play a movie the dvd froze and wouldn`t go any further than the title screen. Please can anyone recommend a region free disc that is compatible with the new silver model. The blaze disc also removed the green screen when you used a scart cable which was great as the picture was really clear but it just doesn`t work anymore with this model. Please help! Thanks.

This is a `problem` inherent with all new PS2`s. Sony are at the forefront of region encoding, so obviously, every new player/DVD-playing console will have the latest RC software.

The old region-free discs, eg Region X, just can`t hack this software. The websites updated the codes every now and again as the new PS2 firmware editions were released, but the latest ones just haven`t been cracked yet.

Is this still a problem with the Silver PS2 as I was thinking about getting one soon?
