You need to install the Spanish version if you want the OS to be Spanish.

If it is undesirable to buy and install the other language version, as
Brian A. said, -- see if the solution of the same problem for Russian,

"Cyrillic (Russian): instructions for Windows and Internet"
http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homep...r/index_en.htm

will help: the most of its ideas and recipes are applicable to Spanish
as well.

It is the longer way though, and does not convert English version to
Spanish one in whole: so, the Help system will remain in English.
