Hi!
I recently bought the MSWindows XP upgrade for my computer
which is currently running Win ME. However, when I tried
to install it, the upgrade programme gave me an error
message, as my Win ME is in Englsih, and the Win XP
Upgrade is in French (I'm currently living in
Switzerland). I would like to know if anyone knows of a
way i can get this installed, or if I can send my software
in to Microsoft and get it sent back to me in English?
Many thanks for your help

Both the original OS and the Upgrade CD _must_ be of the same
language. You'll need to purchase an English Upgrade CD.
