I have installed the WETCB to help transfer programs from an old XP PC to a
new Vista one but it is giving an error: beta only supports windows US
English. I have changed the settings on both PCs to US English in the
Language settings on the control panel and rebooted both pcs but with no
change.

There are two types of settings for the language.
I had the same error as you until I also changed the regional and language
options and used the administrative tab.
From there you change the system locale.
I think you only changed the display language, which doesn't quite do the
required change you need.

Hi! I had the same error message and tried to follow your advice. But where
you found the administrative tab? In my regional and language options there
are "regional options", "Language" and "advaced" tabs. No administrative one.
Can you explain it, please!!! Thanks in advance

As an alternate option you can try PickMeApp - a free application for
program transfer. I am not sure how well it will work under non-English
Vista, though.

The program can be downloaded from 'Home Page | PickMeApp'
(http://www.pickmeapp.com).

Also there is a free ::Move Me application by 'Spearit Software -
Welcome to Spearit Software' (http://www.spearit.com/) for full system
transfer. ::
