Hi there, Welcome to AfterDawn
It sounds like it's a region problem.
Check to see what region your DVD drive is set to read.
Go to my computer
When you see your DVD drive right click on it and go to properties
Click on the Hardware tab and find your drive and click on properties again.
Next click on the DVD region tab and see where it's set to.
Some computer comes with a warning about resetting the region.
Meaning if you reset it to another region you only have a certain number of time to do so before it locks out your drive.
Another choice is to use a program like AnyDVD
It removes region codes so that you can view AnyDVD like the name say.
