change language in vista Home premium
HI I have recentley I have a toshiba equium laptop with vista home premium on it, however, it is in Chinese, the bios is English and there is something funny like "enter" in English, but nothing else, I know where the list of languages is in Control Panel etc, but all languages in the drop down menus are in Chinese (kanji I think) and I can't read it... What is English United Kingdom in kanji? someone told any suggestions short of a complete re - load, oh, and I don't have a vista disc as I have always used xp.
If it's a version of Chinese language of Vista, change the display language to English will change SOME of the Chinese-to-English User Interface, but it is not an English version of Vista. (It is available only in Vista Ultimate.)
See also the section "when you change the display language...". "at the bottom of this page-online http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Change-the-display-language
The foregoing anyway, this really has nothing to do with the Windows Update feature. You can find assistance appropriate in this forum instead: http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/vistaappearance/threads

Method 1:
Check the link and see if it helps:

I made a blunder when changing the permissions of public folders for everyone. I am now connected to Vista Home Premium on my home PC as an Admin will be complete permissiongs. When I right click on the folder Public, pooling and property options are both now gone. How to restore the availability of these options? Also, I can access to is no longer the files that I previously copied into the Public folder. How can I restore my access to these files?
Have you started with elevated privileges command prompt? Just running in the administrator account is not enough. Looks like you don't have because it starts in your user directory. If you were high would begin in the Windows\System32 directory.
See: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Command-Prompt-frequently-asked-questions
Orders, you should get something like this:
Takeown /f /a C:\Users\Public
ICACLS C:\Users\Public/Grant "BUILTIN\Users: (F)".
ICACLS C:\Users\Public/Grant "Administrators: (F)".
Takeown /f C:\Users\Public\*/a
ICACLS C:\Users\Public\*.*/Grant "BUILTIN\Users: (F)".
ICACLS C:\Users\Public\*.*/Grant "Administrators: (F)".I can't guarantee that this will fix your system. You must give permissions for the system and other users accounts. If you have access to another system, I would compare the settings there. These programs will help you determine the permissions associated with a system

IM now running Vista Home Premium 32. I would like to change the system for Vista Ultimate 64 so I can run more than 4 GB of memory. Now Ive some factory settings if something happened, I can run my HARD drive restore. My question is how to change the Vista 64 operating system, so I can keep the recovery on my hard drive partition? Mayby there is some kind of upgrade cd?

Hello
32-bit to 64-bit is not an upgrade
It must be done with a clean installation using a full version ' / Ultimate 64 bit license
Contact the manufacturer of your computer for more information on getting 64-bit ultimate, which I doubt they will always
