French and English interface

[Guest]

Hi,

I recently installed Windows XP x64 on my pc and I share it with my roomate.
My roomate does not understand english and the interface on my Windows is
English. Is there a way to make his interface French?

You can configure French-language input
(http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/setup/expert/reginalsup.mspx) but
otherwise you'd need to have a French-language version of Windows XP,

Sorry, no. You'd need a separate nstallation of a French version for him.

If I get the French version for him, will I still have my english interface?

No, you would be buying an entirely separate operating system in French.
You could make a dual-boot system with your English operating system on
one hard drive (or partition if you have a large enough hard drive) and
his French operating system on the other.
