You'd have to buy the XP Pro CD in Spanish - check ebay?

You can only install the Spanish dictionaries; you can't make Windows
use a foreign language because the version comes as a language
version.

You cannot upgrade or convert from one language version of the OS
to another, so you'll have to purchase and use the full version of WinXP
(in whatever language you want) to perform a clean installation.

Hi Vik: I am in your opposite situation, knowing a little, but not enough Spanish to make my Spanish language version XP Pro, SP2 as smooth as I would like it.

I bought and hava available for exchange two factory-sealed, unopened, documented (I have the receipt, and can send digital photo or better, live high definition Skype video images of the packages which you can read and examine in real time for proof of genuineness and unopened condition.) Spanish XP Professional OEM version.

I will need in exchange, one for one, an English language version XP Professional likewise in pristine, unpened packaged condition, with Skype video, preferably, or digital photo visual proof similar to what I am offering.

Thanks,

regards,

Vilis
