| I have the Pioneer 106s DVD (f/w 1.22) and it's region-locked. I've just taken the patch to make it region free. My problem is that (maybe I'm stupid): I have winXP Pro and using a win98 boot floppy or using a boot floppy created by winXP I can't see the DVD drive when I reboot my PC, I can only see drives C: and A: ! My questions are: 1) Is it normal with winXP? 2) Is it necessary to see the DVD drive in DOS mode to apply the patch or I have only to run the patch from C: or A: using the correct code for the IDE channel in wich the DVD is installed? Thanks! Bye |

| Thats strange as I just recently upgraded the same model and same firmware under win XP about 5 days ago. It detected it fine. Format a system disk using win98 and copy the firmware files across and boot off the floppy and try again! |
| @bretella Hi ! The same place www.firmware.fr.st where you've dld your ( I guess, 1.22 RPC-1 ) patch from, has another tiny prog called FUPW2K You can either get it there... ...or click here for downloading it directly http://www.pioneeraus.com.au/multime...fupw2k_108.zip And you then easily will be able to patch your drive in Windows - a piece of cake !
