DVD Drive locked to region 1!

Hi,

I've been backing up my region 2 dvd's for a while now as I've been getting them, and bought some region 1 dvd's. . When I opened them with DVD Shrink it asked me to change the region for my dvd player (Pioneer 110). Like a fool, I did. Now it will only play/backup R1 movies! When I put a region 2 one in, I can't play it at all and DVD shrink asks me to change the region code again. It said "Your dvd recorder only allows you to change the region one more time." I try to change it to R2 again, but it say's Region change failed! What should I do?

P.S I have tried re-installing dvd shrink, and have downloaded this program-

When I run it, it says the drive is locked to region 1, the user has 1 change left and manufacturer has 4
