WRONG REGION on the screen

Have you checked the region in your Disc Properties? Go into Disk Management, find your dvd and right click on it. Go into the properties and you will see a heading for Regions. In there it explains a bit about regions, which should be at 2. If it is not, then change it to 2. Let me know if this doesn't help.

Philips DCP750/37 shows "wrong region"

Australian players are designed only to play Region 4 discs. United States discs are Region 1. It is illegal to change the Region code on a DVD player, so I can't tell you how to do it (ironically, it is the most frequently asked question about dvd players on Fixya.com - global world), but there are videos on YouTube that will show you how to do it - I would just enter "philips region code dvd" as your seacrh term. You won't find that exact model, but one of the codes in the video should work. Note that you will only be able to change the region code three times on a Philips - after that you will be locked out. So change it to Region 1 once, and never change it again.
