| 411378 | 2005-12-09 07:22:00 | I bought a computer installed with Windows XP Professional and SP1a but the language is some asian one, im not sure what but i was wondering whether i can change it back to English cause otherwise i am really struggling to use the computer. Any help is a huge help, Thanks. | bluepoles (7281) | ||
| 411379 | 2005-12-09 07:29:00 | You will need a XP Pro English disk, and install that. back up and reinstall. | Prescott (11) | ||
| 411380 | 2005-12-09 07:36:00 | is that my only option cause those are expensive...i thought you could change it within windows...??? | bluepoles (7281) | ||
| 411381 | 2005-12-09 07:58:00 | Have you tried going Control Panel>Regional and Language Options>Language>Details. Then changing your defualt language or adding a new one. | imarubberducky (7230) | ||
| 411382 | 2005-12-09 08:22:00 | yeah but because its in some asian type i have no idea what to change it to... i can only guess | bluepoles (7281) | ||
| 411383 | 2005-12-09 08:53:00 | See what language it's set at, copy it down, and post it onto a website as an image and someone here should be able tell what language it is. Then they can tell you which one to change it to. | Greg (193) | ||
| 411384 | 2005-12-09 09:10:00 | ok will do as soon as i get it networked with internet access... watch this space tomorrow... | bluepoles (7281) | ||
| 411385 | 2005-12-10 00:55:00 | The language is Chinese, i cant take a screenshot because of networking problems... | bluepoles (7281) | ||
| 411386 | 2005-12-10 01:06:00 | I can help you with the chinese to english translation should you need one, bluepoles. How can networking problem affect taking screenshots? On the other hand, you might want to take this as an excellent opportunity and encouragement to learn another language - i.e. chinese :rolleyes: I am sure the icons in XP can easily serve as a guide to what function do they possess. Cheers :) |
