Making Targa 5100x region free

Hey

I've read the large thread regarding the Targa, but the link which is given to make it region free is a 404 now.

Does anyone have a working link for making the Targa region free?

Thanks!!

1) Download the file Kpjc19_1.dvd from: www.math.uga.edu/~djb/html/kpjc19_1.dvd This file consisting of four bytes of data (hex 17 17 8C 00), ensure of this. If it’s 5MB, you did something wrong and it doesn’t work, it should be four bytes long.
2)Now create a folder on your desktop called RMTM0000 (that is 4 zeros at the end by the way all letters are upper case). Inside this folder create another folder called SCARLET, again all uppercase.
3)Now copy the kpjc19_1.dvd file from your desktop and paste it into SCARLET folder. Exactly as it was, do not rename it.
4)Now burn the RMTM0000 folder (i used nero), Ensure that you born this as data CD and finalize/close the disc.
5)After this is finished place the CD into your player and close the try. You will get a blue screen telling you the unit is region 2, press 0 for all region, then press Pause button on your remote control, then power off the player, wait a few second and start the player. Now your player is region free.

Re: Targa DP-5100x Multi-Region Fix

Take a look at the right hand column of this page.

It has the file you need along with the instructions on how to burn it to CD.

EDIT: jerryq7777 beat me to it.
