ɹəuəllıʍ ʇɐb Posted April 11, 2006 Report Share Posted April 11, 2006 Hello, and welcome to the Windows Forum!Is this what you are looking for.http://www.fujitsu-siemens.co.uk/rl/servic...10/language.htmI don't think this is what he was looking for; it seems he wants to see Windows in English.Unfortunately, the way Microsoft distributes Windows will not let you change its language - the same as every other Microsoft product, e.g. Office. You will have to get an English version of Windows, but I think an upgrade version will do since you already have a licensed version of Windows. Or talk with Microsoft if there is another option, i.e. exchange the French version with an English version? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seshomaru Samma Posted April 12, 2006 Report Share Posted April 12, 2006 I have changed my XP from English to Chinese and from English to Japanese using MUI. But as far as I know you can only install MUI on an English version. Still, the CD had many languages in it and I think I saw English there as well so perhaps it's possible to change from French to English.

ɹəuəllıʍ ʇɐb Posted April 12, 2006 Report Share Posted April 12, 2006 I don't think MUI is on standard Windows CD-ROMs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
