You need to download and install firmware on your player for the hack to work - see this site.

Sorry to say, RB, but that`ll be down to user error - did you switch the power off before the upgrade sequence completed ? Did you follow the instructions to the letter ?

Countless other folks have carried it out without any bother.

Aren`t the full instructions available in a downloadable Word document at the same site ?
