Title: Need Windows help peeps
Post by: JMM on December 28, 2003, 01:33:40 pm
I'm using Vicky's P/C here in Mexico, and the cable company uses the old style Scientific Atlanta cable modems and equipment (remember when you had to have a disc to install and configure your cable modem?), I got through Spybot and got rid of spyware that was slowing down the system, but I also want to change the language of Windows ME on this machine to English so that I can install the Sygate firewall and make the machine more secure. Is it possible to change the language from Espanol to Ingles without having to reinstall Windows? I would rather leave the system intact and then clean out the machine like I did mine at home in Austin. If this can be done, please let me know, as the dumbarse cable company took my cable installation disc

Thanks a lot A! That's why I love this place, rapid response teams on the fly! Vicky is at the hardware store getting the special cable needed for sat tv, but when her and her brother return I'll get it switched and get this baby running smooth.

Again, many thanks and Happy New Year brother!
