I have Window Vista Business pre-installed on a Thinkpad i just purchased.
The Vista language is set to Swedish (a swedish layout thinkpad). I want to
change the language to English for Vista - how do I do that?

Purchase a "Full English Version" of Windows Vista
and perform a "clean install". Or send the ThinkPad
back to IBM and request an English version.

I have Window Vista Home Basic pre-installed on a Thinkpad i just purchased.
The Vista language is set to taiwanese (a taiwanese layout thinkpad). I want
to
change the language to English for Vista - how do I do that?


Thanks!

As answered elsewhere, only Ultimate has the language change capability.
You'll have to buy a new version of Vista.

I find this unacceptable that MS is bragging about bridging cultures and
offering Language Packs and they force you to pay twice to have a different
language for Vista. Specially since you can download for free the languange
Packs for XP.

I Agree with Rob, I think if you've buy an original software with your
equipment, you most have a free of charge packs download from the MS site...
