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 is 4. 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.

If your computer is plugged into a surge 
protector, make sure that the surge 
protector is connected securely to an 
electrical outlet, turned on, and working 
correctly. To test the outlet, plug a 
working device, such as a lamp, into the 
outlet and turn it on.
Make sure that the power cord is free 
from cuts or damage. Replace any 
damaged cables.
