It's not as easy as that.

First you have to determine what Firmware your DVD has, then you have to find a region free Firmware. Once you have the Firmware you have to flash your DVD with the new Firmware, make sure you back up your old Firmware first just incase. Then you have to get region free software for your DVD software.

Right click My Computer
Click on Properties
Click on Device Manager
Click on CD Roms and select your DVD
Click on Properties
Click on Settings

Note your Firmware revision.

Search Specific Drive and Firmware to find a rewritten Firmware.

Then use software such as region killer or DVDGenie etc.

If you run a search on google you will find many sites on region free. They will give detailed information and tell you whwre to find the firmware in the first place.
