Yeah this is great! I upgraded the ROM no problems!! I aint tested a VCD yet! but assuming yours is fine mine will be I guess.. will test one tonight..

Interesting notes are as follows... basic info about the archived file I downloaded... Well I did not have clonecd so I had to use WinImage type program called ISObuster to remove the bank30.rom from the archive. I then just did a standard iso burn with Nero onto a blank CDR.. this appears to have worked fine!

about the bank30.rom... I loaded it into notepad out of interest and found screen printable text refering to secret menu 1 (eg secret 1 code 0 code 1 etc etc ) but also reference to secret 2.. Could this be the macrovision on / off menu?? Well assuming that its going to be the same procedure to access this menu as menu 1 then I think I will be staying up late tonight for a bit of brute forcing! :)

all the best

God bless you LightFast!

Thanks the cd seems to have worked. What version number should it read now? I can`t remember what it was originally but the DVD player didn`t blow up which is a good thing :)
