I have a foreign version of windows 2000, and was wondering if theres a download for the english language, as the start menu etc is all foreign...

According to google, to change the language, there is a box in "regional settings" ... i dont have this... so its either something i removed in nLite (i kept english tho) or im missing something... in the meantime, im going to nLite again from scratch, and leave language settings alone

Any help appreciated

You`ll need to get hold of the language pack for windows 200, I think this is only legally available through MSDN or direct from M$.

you can't change the interface language. end of story. :)

unless you have the 'mui' version but that is unlikely....

How can I acquire Windows MUI?

The Windows XP/2000 MUI is sold only through Volume Licensing programs such as the Microsoft Open License Program (MOLP / Open), Select, and Enterprise agreement (or with a new computer as an OEM version at customer request). It is not available through retail channels.
