Hi all.
I'm an utter novice when it comes to computers - so please bare this in mind if you're kind enough to reply to my question!
I've just rendered my MacBookPro's DVD player useless. I've played a mixture of region 1 and region 2 discs, and the player is now permanently set to region 1. As a UK resident, this makes 99% of my DVD collection unwatchable.
I was thinking of reinstalling my OS using the disc I got with my computer. Would doing this take my Mac back to its original 'factory settings'? Back to a clean slate, if you see what I mean? I wouldn't mind losing documents etc if I were to get my DVD player back.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!
