    My reginal options looks the same, except for the english, it says german and of course all of the writing is in german....
    I think it is best and fastest to simply clean install a "XP SP3 de 32bit" version. Where do I find like that that on this website?

    THe hash check on the installed XP is:

    File: Windows XP Professional SP3 English Pre-Activated (CD-Key Integrated).gbi
    CRC-32: eb8b61f3
    MD4: fde25b3262bdd03f51375baa7f59f5b4
    MD5: eb8095c180d5d05286c2f4bd6fcac335
    SHA-1: 8f59c2e3e0bc23d6a0c5c57e2e65923d1ee4ffbb

    As I wrote it has worked perfectly well for a long time, to change the keyboard layout is the evry first thing that does not work.
    I still believe that re-installing a german version is easier than all this, as I have the bnecessary drivers and it will take less than two hours.
    I have been trying for three days now to change the keyboard... not very rational...
    I have an XP SP2 in german and an XP SP3 only in english..... is there a "complete" XP SP3 in german available here?

    THanks...

    Small update..

    Im thinking of compressing each language to its own rarfile so instead of uploading 5 cd's i will upload one rarfile with one language pack, would that be good?

    Actually, I would love to have the full discs as well. I managed to download the first three - however, the I need the finalt two (4 and 5). Any chance you could up them in their entirety? Thanks.

    Edit:
    I have now uploaded all languages available for Windows XP Professional.
    If you'd like to create a CD or perhaps 1 DVD, download and extract the languages to one folder and you're done.
    You can now burn it to either CD or DVD if you want. Link to Windows XP Professional SP3 OEM English is easily found and you can also browse the MDL Folder..

    Hope you enjoy them! :p

    How do you mean? By installing any of the language packs you can change from English or whatever to yours:)
    Download from my mirror, unpack the language you want and install and finally change to it in control panel.

    Dutch to EN

    Hello, tomorrow I will receive from a friend, a laptop with XP installed in Dutch and wants to change in to English :| I've been searched on Google but do not know what method will work (with MUI or other)

    I know that for Vista / 7 theres a program called Vistalizator, buth for XP it will work only MUI ?
