Toshiba DVD Player SD125E Hack I can confirm that the SD220E CD Hack also works for the Toshiba SD-125E. After Spending many days reading/searching/deliberating on whether to go for it I read today at the following thread that the CD is a multi-region update disk not a firmware update disk. http://www.dvd.reviewer.co.uk/forums/thread.asp?Forum=176&Thread=122513 The Update CD does not modify the firmware – it only updates some setting and that’s why this single CD will work with a number of different DVD models (Toshiba’s of course but nothing older than 120/220) irrespective of firmware version. So no chance of messing up the firmware! (that’s the theory anyway) I checked my firmware before and after running the update CD. Nothing changed so obviously the firmware was not updated. To Identify the firmwareRom Version Zoom , 6 , 0 , 6 , Zoom For my player, which I bought 1st week in Aug 2003. Boot Room Version: v1.300 Main Room version: v1.700 - R2 OSD: Eng/Fre/Ger/Spa/Ita V-FORMAT: PAL/AUTO Dimmer: Normal/Dimmed/Off SRV: MK2 The update itself took exactly 9 secs. The following link for an uncorrupted version of the Region-Free CD (the file on the original French site file is corrupted) http://koti.mbnet.fi/~uheng/sd220e.rar Or search via emule/edonkey. You must Write the CD in DAO (Disk at once mode – not track at once) Use Nero or CDRWin etc. Instructions Switch on DVD Player Press SETUP Under the Picture option Change the Pal/Auto setting to Auto Press SETUP again to return to main screen. Insert the Update CD. CD will spin Up. The following images were displayed ’Nabe the Wiz’ (Could have been ‘Mabe the Wiz’ it came up only for a few seconds) and then ends with ‘FIN’ Remove CD. Switch DVD Player On/Off to make sure it isn’t still trying to update. And way you go… region free | |||

just responding to the above... i've used the multi region cd in my toshiba sd125e, and it works fine, though region 1 also plays in black and white. this is to do with the tv though isn't it? i've got a major problem though- since using it my player won't load region 2!! (aaarrgh!!) when a regular disc is put in, the player tries to load it but then the telly cuts to static + and the player won't respond to the handset... any ideas?? many thanks in advance Jock | |||

I've created and run the CD onto my SD-125E player. I saw the "Nabe the Wizard" text and "FIN." I think it has worked buy should the bios be changed? It reads the same as before... | |||
