copyrights internationally.

You can play a DVD containing a region code only if the region code on the DVD matches the region
setting on your DVD drive.

CAUTION:

The region settings on your DVD drive can be changed only 5 times.

The region setting you select the fifth time becomes the permanent region setting on the DVD drive.

The number of region changes remaining is displayed on the DVD Region tab.

Select Start > My Computer.

2.

Right-click in the window and select Properties > Hardware tab > Device Manager.

to change region settings, and then click Properties.
