Language Problems

I am currently working in France, just bought a new desktop but the problem
is all the instructions are in French. Is there any language pack that I can
download to change the system to english one? Or can I do anything to change
it? Please advice.

Try opening "Control Panel", then click on "Clock, Language, an
Region". From there, you can click on "Change Display Language"

See if that helps

Hi,

If your version is Ultimate, then you can download and install the English
language MUI from Windows Update and switch over. For any other version, all
you would be able to do is install keyboard support for English, but the
base OS language would remain French.

You can go to "Control Panel"->"System and Maintenance"->"System", or
click the "Start Orb", then right-click Comuter and select Properties.

You should then see what version of Vista you have.

Vista Ultimate would be the appropriate choice in this situation since it
includes all world wide language interfaces.
