try this one,let me know. hcim.mis[at]ten.mocwc ( tip]]] region 0 is true region free)

Sharp DV-740
Write: TSDVDREG-2001-8939912-R0 (but write R1 R2 etc. for whatever region) to a notepad file, save as CREGIN.TXT and Burn to CD-R as ISO9660 Mode 1, insert this disc into your sharp DV-740, it will make a noise as though it is scanning a disc then in the bottom left hand corner will appear the region to which the player is set, to change back from region to region you will have to first turn the DVD player off then insert the disc.

You don`t say which DV740 you have.

Check these pages for all the various `740 hacks - it depends upon which country you bought the player from.

The hack posted above is for the UK variant, the DV740H

hi sim the spark,

This sounds complicated I don`t understand the instructions. They need to be basic and idiot proof, like get this type of cd burn it in this machine then step by step what I must do, sorry I am a real techno novice.

Thanks qpid
