Default Move from Canada to Europe - burner not working

I have a laptop from Canada, but I moved to the UK. It is a DVD player/CD burner/DVD burner, but when i tried to play a DVD on it, it asked me to switch the system to a some different system for Europe I guess. Ever since I did that, I cannot burn cd's or even listen to them. Is there a way I can fix this problem? Or do I have to buy an entire new drive that is formatted for the European system?

Thanks so much!

Are you referring to the Region Code ? .... if so, you could try running something like AnyDVD from Slysoft (trial download) this works in the background and renders the drive Region Free.
