How do I make my Benq DW1640 Region Free??

Hello!
I am just wondering, I got a Benq DW1640 drive some months ago, and I am VERY satisfied right now until I saw a protected DVD that ask me to change my region. It says I have only 5 Region changes left.
Now, How do I make my Benq DW1640 Region Free??
If I make my drive region free, does that mean I do not need to change region EVER AGAIN even when I encounter some region locked DVD?? How does it work?? I mean, or does region free firmware means I can do region change unlimited number of times???


I have gone to the dangerous brother's homepage and saw the modified firmware there, but I am confused, what's "BSGB", "BSHB", "GSHB", "BSJB", "BSKB", "BSLB", "BSMB", and "BSOB" ??? Which one is the best to use??

BSOB is the most recent. To find out more about region free try this link. http://forum.rpc1.org/viewtopic.php?t=239

AnyDVD would be a start.

Different firmware versions. As far as we know, they don't stand for anything. For each each BenQ drive, the third letter is the only one that changes. So G is the first version, then H, then J, all the way up to O, the newest.
