Xp language change
Hello Guys,
My cousin brought me a laptop with window xp preinstalled in Spanish. Now that he has moved over here, he wanted to change xp into english. He already bought a legal copy of xp in english. My question is , will he going to loose all his files when I will reinstal the operating system into english or all his files and programs will remain the same during the process. Thanks for your help. Thierry

I do not believe you can do an "over the top" or upgrade install with a different language version. Back up his files and wipe it. A parallel install is possible, but do you want to deal with that?
