And download the zip file. Extract the zip and burn the file onto a CD. Load the CD into the player and select region 0 Switch off and back on.
step 2
If when you then try and play a dvd (non region 2) it still says "check region code" then using your remote, press display then disc menu then play in that sequence quite quickly. It honestly works ! Because i`d already tried step one above, im not sure if you could just try step 2, might work without the software upgrade ???
