I need some XP help
    #14118080 - 03/14/11 03:56 AM (12 years, 10 months ago)

I installed a copy of Windows XP Compaq system restore disk on my Compaq PC. It installed great, registered my copy of XP to the product key on the case.

My problem is this version of xp is in a foreign language. :shakefist:

How do I change it to English? Any ideas fellas? Anyone know where to download an English language pack?

I gotta have this thing set up by tomorrow...

In the control panel, open up regional and language options, and voila!  And the English language pack should already be on your set-up disc if not already installed by default.

It should have asked you what region and language right after installing it.

Hopefully it's not in Mandarin or Japanese, that would suck trying to find the regional and language settings. Unless you can find your way to a language converter online.

Same thing happened to me when I played Neil Armstrong in Moonshot. They found me in an alley in Burbank trying to re-enter the earth's atmosphere in an old refrigerator box.

I went under the language settings at it only had two languages. I forget what they were but they were defiantly not english.

I had to look at XP on another computer to find my way around. It sucked, I found another copy that worked though.
