Ive just got a new laptop, (Qosmio F55) from the states, however in the manuel is says I can change dvd regions 4 times I think. At the moment its set to region 1, but my entire dvd collection is region 2 so i want it to be region 2. I says it will change automatically when the disc is inserted but it doesnt, it just comes up with an error message saying set to the wrong region.

How do I change it manually?

Any help would be much appreciated!

What software is installed on the laptop for playing DVD movies?

Windows Media Player?

WinDVD

Power DVD

Something else?

Unless we know what software is being used, we cannot tell you how to change the region.

I'll assume you are using windows.

go to My Computer
Right click the DVD drive
choose properties
click hardware (up the top)
again choose your dvd drive
click properties
click dvd region (again up the top)
choose your country OR a country in region 2

let us know if you have any problems :D
