lol - some how goto control panel - click the incon with a globe and a clock
(regional & language settings) - goto the 4th tab - press the first
(administrative) button - then you choose the language

Hope this helps -

Hi,

I'm not sure if you can do that for Home Premium or not, but refer to this:

The only other way would be to purchase an English version of Vista
Home Premium and perform a clean installation.

Good morning everybody!
I had the same problem with my laptop when I bought it in Japan. All in
Japanese makes me crazy at first, fortunately, I found the way to
convert from Japanese version into English version. It was great for me.
Please follow this link and you will find how to do it easily.
