Installing WinDVD and viewing a DVD movie

To install WinDVD, go to the Softwaresection of the Software and User’s Guide CD.

After you install the CD-RW/DVD drive and WinDVD, you can view a DVD movie. But first you need to set the DVD region code for your DVD content.

DVD region codes

DVD region codes help protect the contents of a DVD. The world is divided into six regions and specific content can be viewed only in the appropriate region. For example, content for Region 1 can be viewed only in the U.S. and Canada. WinDVD is also region–specific.

You can verify the region code of the content by looking at the region code symbol on the back of the content packaging.

Region code

4

Start WinDVD by inserting the DVD into the drive. The region code is automatically set and you can view the movie. This is the initial setting.

After the region code has been set, if you insert a DVD with a different region code, you are prompted to change the region code. You can change the region code from your initial setting up to four times.

After the region code has been changed from its initial setting four times, it is fixed and can no longer be changed. Thereafter, you can play DVD content only from that region.
