I work at a school with a laptop program. All students have a laptop. Some students take Mandarin and we have to load the Asian languages to XP. The problem we are having now is, we updated our XP - Sp2 to Service Pack 3. Now when we go to add the Languages it asks for Windows XP with SP 3 CD.

We only have Windows XP w/ SP2 CDs and we used the download of SP3 for the update. I downloaded the ISO for SP3 but that does us no good because it wants the CD that has Windows XP w/ SP3. Has anyone else had this issue, or know how to get around this?

I no longer check Comments on this blog, but will leave this post up because it seems to have helped many people previously. I recently needed to change languages in my Windows XP Operating System because I teach English in Korea, and all the computers in the office have Windows installed in Korean. Though I’m learning the language, nothing beats being able to read about the computer problems and solve them on your own in your native language (mine = English). Therefore, here are the steps, links, and images I used to successfully change my Windows XP from Korean to English.

Download the Windows Service Pack 3 installer to your computer IN YOUR DESIRED OS LANGUAGE (in my case English). You can find the download from the Microsoft website, here: 2. Open Regedit from the start menu (Start -> Run -> “regedit”), to change the Language Registry Key values.

The Registry Keys to change are located in “HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SYSTEM/ControlSet001/Control/NIs/Language” **IMPORTANT** Always create a Backup of your Registry Keys before changing any values. Wouldn’t want to create a huge problem to fix later. Traurnaya lenta na foto sdelatj onlajn.

This can be done by clicking on “File -> Export” and saving the values anywhere you can find them later (if there is a problem you can always restore the original keys with “File -> Import” and choosing those keys you saved earlier. Restart your computer to apply the new Language settings. Install your chosen language Windows SP3 from the place you downloaded it earlier. (If you try to install this before you restart your computer with the new language settings, Windows will give you an error like “Cannot install Service Pack 3 because the system you are installing to is a different language than the Service Pack.”) 5.

After successful installation of SP3, restart your computer again for the settings to all take effect. Upon Restart, Windows should now be in the language of your choosing. You may need to reinstall any applications into the language of your choice as Windows settings don’t necessarily affect the language settings of individual programs (in my case I had to reinstall in English, and in English). UPDATE** Still need the original language?

Trick your computer into reading other programs in their native language. Since moving to, I’ve needed to access a Korean computer program and make it read Korean characters. However, after the switch to English, the Korean characters that should have told me student names only showed up as “boxes.” Find out how to fix that in my next post: Trick your Windows XP computer into reading programs in their native language.
