[Guest Idanbjacobs]

Hey folks! I have on my PC Windows 98 in English. I want to upgrade it using

an original copy of Windows Me Upgrade Edition which is in Hebrew. My

quesiton is: 1st: is that possible? 2nd: can I change the menues to English

after the installation is done? Thanx in advance, Idan

The upgrade language difference is not compatable, however Microsoft says the

workaround is:

 

-- 1. Start Registry Editor.

2. Locate the following key in the registry:

HKEY_USERS\.Default\Control Panel\Desktop\ResourceLocale

3. Change the value to match the language locale to which you are upgrading.

See the following Microsoft Knowledge Base article for some of the common

codepage values:

151701 (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/151701/EN-US/) How to Manually Add

Code Pages for Mixed Languages

4. Quit Registry Editor.

For example, if the registry key is set to 000809, the ResourceLocale

setting is UK English. Running a U.S. English upgrade CD-ROM results in the

error message. In this example, change the registry value to 000409.
