Install English version over Italian version
 

Hello,

I have a PC with Win98 Italian version loaded. I would like to install the
English version.

Question is: Do I need to format and reinstall or can I just do a
re-install over the top?

Thanks for the help.

You need to reformat first. Or, if you have lots of disk space and want
to keep the Italian version, you could repartition and dual-boot.

I guess you do not need to reformat... just rename "Windows" and "[program
files] in italian" forlders and proceed with the instalation... ;)
That will keep you original files intact..
To rename that folders I uses and old DOS util (norton NCD matbe) but I
think you can get one from the net...
