I have bought a Pioneer 106s. I wanted to make it region free. I have upgraded the firmware from this site using 1.22 version. I have also tried version 1.09.
http://perso.club-internet.fr/farzeno/firmware/dvd/dvdfi.htm It updated without any problems. Then I used Drive Info V1.1 to test it, clearly says that Pioneer 106S has no region protection. When I try to play a region 1 disc my PowerDVD 3.0 version says that disc is locked at region 4 (I did say yes to change the region while I was testing the DVD-ROM, and used up all the five settings).
Have I done something wrong? I am running WIN ME on a Pentium III, 733mhz machine.
What should I do to fix the problem.
Thanking you in advance.
