How To Change Os Language From French To English

I Bought A New Vaio With Operating System Interface Language In French. Vista Home Premium. Because In France They Sell Only French O.s. Vista (not Office, Vista Itself)

How Can I Change The Vista Interface (start Button-programs-menus) Language From French To English?

Thank You.

I believe you would have to purchase an English language version of Vista

Hi,

Options:

1) Upgrade to Ultimate using Anytime Upgrade, then you can install the
english language pack.

2) Purchase a full version copy of Vista Home in english and install it
cleanly.

3) Try this product: http://www.froggie.sk/ which I've seen recommended for
this issue, but have not tried myself so I can't vouch for it.

I am afraid it cannot be done - unless you have Vista Ultimate (or Business
?),
But Sony may accept to send you an English copy of the OS.

Re: How To Change Os Language From French To English

Thank you for your valuable replies.

froggie.sk files did not help.

I am trying to get help from VAIO to see if they can supply me with Vista Home Premium 32 bit English.

I have not seen a problem like this in any forum. So, I hope we can solve it together.
