I have a Sony VAIO laptop purchased in the the US with Windows XP Home Edition(English)version loaded. I want to change the base language in XP to Simplified Chinese. Can i get a download to do this or do I need to get a new XP version and reinstall?

thanks
 
Windows XP is written in specific language versions, therefore one
cannot change it from one language version to another. You'll need
to purchase a "Full Version" of Windows XP in the language version
you desire, reformat your drive and install it "clean".

Or if you have an available empty drive or partition, you can install
another "Full Version" of Windows XP in a different language version
and create a dual-boot configuration.

A good third-party partitioning program is Partition Magic 8.

Unfortunately... The latter option.
