Question
Hey,
Do you know if UK PC games work on US computers? i would think they do because they are just CD's but DVD's from the UK dont work usually. Thanks

Answer
Most likely not. The newer games that are released on DVD are usually region code protected. There may be some older games but to my knowledge, a UK DVD will not work in the US. The only way you MAY be able to get around it is to make an image of the DVD using any tool that makes an image file and then mounting it in Daemon Tools. Daemon tools is a virtual drive which doesn't read region codes.
