Hi Nick

Normally you will need to purchase the Full English version of XP - the Korean version cannot be 'upgraded. You can then decide on whether to dual-boot with existing Korean version or reformat and start from scratch with English version. The following article will help you with a 'clean' install:

You can purchase a copy of the 'Upgrade' version if you have an English qualifying CD from a previous version of Windows:
