hi Christina,

I have been able to use g.region to change the zone.  First though you
must edit the region file under your windows subdirectory.  Edit the zone
appropriately.  Then

run g.region as a command line:

                  g.region region=filename

For some reason this will change the zone if it has been edited in the
region file.  g.region, as a menu driven command, will not let you
edit zone.  Also edit PROJ_INFO so that the zones match.

Try this and see if it works.
