Hello,
I bought today a laptop in Hungary (MSI Wind U100), and it came with an OEM
version of windows XP, in Hungarian language.
I would to change the interface so it would be all in the english language.
I tried to download the LIP (language interface pack), but it redirected me
to a readme page (and it seems that I have the minimal requirments, so I dont
understand why it wont let me download)

How can I make it work?
Thank you in advance,
Tom K.

Localized versions of Windows can't be 'converted' to another language.
Install an English language version of Windows.

Unfortunately, you need to buy an English version. There's no way to
convert what you have.
