Thanks, but the URL is not recognised by tripod.  Did find this:..

http://betaxtreme.hypermart.net/winmefiles.htm

..which has the patch previously mentioned.

Quite apart from the fact that I'm a bit of an old DOSser, I need the
command line to flash the firmware in a DVD-ROM drive to make it
region free/region selectable.  This procedure comes with dire
warnings, the only thing I've done like this is to fire upgrade
patches at my US Robotics modem, which continues to function but those
were official upgrades.
