Hi from Australia, I brought a second hand computer, windows is in German! Can i change this or do i need to reinstall windows? Pls help

You will need to purhase and install the English version of XP, sorry.

Not what i wanted to hear but thanx for the answer, take it easy.

not neceseraly if he got the wnidows cd he can nistall thruo it and select a language for his pc and use the code he got with the pc
but almost no companys/shops give out windows cds not even to mention the codes with the pcs they sell

The language options within an XP install relate only to keyboard layouts.

A German version of XP is German. English is English etc.

They are totally different operating systems and must be purchased individually.
