A DVD movie will not play

• Make sure that the disc label is facing front (facing you),

then try inserting it again.

• Try a different disc. Occasionally discs are flawed or

become scratched and cannot be read by the DVD drive.

• Clean the disc. For more information, see “Cleaning

optical discs” on page 63.

• Shut down and restart your computer.

• DVDs and DVD drives contain regional codes that help

control DVD title exports and help reduce illegal disc

distribution. To be able to play a DVD, the disc’s regional

code and your DVD drive’s regional code must match.

The regional code on your DVD drive is determined by

your computer’s delivery address. The regional code for

the United States and Canada is 1. The regional code for

Mexico is4. Your DVD drive’s regional code must match

the regional code for the disc. The regional code for the

disc is on the disc, disc documentation, or disc

packaging.

If the DVD movie does not play, the disc’s regional code

and your DVD drive’s regional code may not match.
