Windows 98
I have a question about Windows 98. My parents work in
Germany, military school teachers, my brother has left them a NEC monitor, Comtech pc, etc. The problem is that some pop-up menus are in German. As my brother was proficient in German. How can my dad get the system to English? I do have a 98 cd. I have installed MS office XP for him when I was there last week. Kim Johnson Manchester |

scribbled some thoughts: NOTE: Best viewed in a fixed pitch font I have a question about Windows 98. My parents work in Germany, military school teachers, my brother has left them a NEC monitor, Comtech pc, etc. The problem is that some pop-up menus are in German. As my brother was proficient in German. How can my dad get the system to English? I do have a 98 cd. I have installed MS office XP for him when I was there last week. Kim Johnson Manchester 1) Send him a copy of the CD, he or you could pay for an additional license to make it legit. 2) Or send him the original CD. 3) He could try learning Die Deutsche Sprache (German) 4) Try Ebay 5) Small trip to England and maybe pick one up. 6) Try area repair shops 7) Take a trip to Germany and give him a copy/original. Then go to a beerhall (ratskeller) and try some of their beers. (Mental Note: Must go to Germany and do such a thing). -- Sincerely, | (©) (©) | ------ooo--(_)--ooo------ Andrew H.

He will need to format the C: partition and then reinstall an English
version of W98. -- Regards Ron Badour, MS MVP for W98 Tips: http://home.satx.rr.com/badour Knowledge Base Info: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?pr=kbinfo "Kim Johnson" wrote in message ...
