Want to change the system of m9550la of HP from Spanish to English

I am an American retired to the Mexico and want to buy a system of "HP Pavilion Elite PC m9555la" at our local COSTCO in Guadalajara.  However, it only comes with software and a Vista of Spanish language operating system.  It cannot be reconfigured in another language.  The material is exactly what I want... someone knows how to reconfigure the English system after that I have to buy, other that to uninstall all the drivers and Spanish software and purchase/reload of all versions English from scratch?

Hey Maxwell,

Looks like you need to upgrade your Vista Home Premium to the "Ultimate" version  Windows Vista Ultimate includes all the language packs and will convert your full operating system for the language that you choose.

http://www.Microsoft.com/Windows/Windows-Vista/compare-editions/ultimate.aspx

You can shop around for the best price, could even be available for sale at your Costco.  The link above shows that you can buy the disks to upgrade from Microsoft for $219.95 more delivery charges.  And you can check how much would a 'Anytime Upgrade' for your machine by clicking on the links on the screens of the system of your machine.  Locally here, side is AMERICAN, the retail of the Ultimage upgrade version goes for $229 but you can almost always find it for sale for $189 and maybe even less.  You can also shop online, Amazon, etc. at the best price.  Just be sure that you get the latest version which includes Service Pack 1 (SP 1) in my opinion.  And you must ensure that 64-bit disc is provided with your purchase.  I understand that all the current retail packaging for Vista Ultimate Upgrade includes two discs: one for Vista 32-bit and one for 64-bit Vista.  But there's an earlier version out there for sale who understand that the 32-bit disk.

Good luck!  and enjoy your retirement!

Edit: I do not think that Vista upgrade apply to other HP programs installed on this system, i.e. software Mediasmart, Cyberlink, HP and Norton.  These programs may have their own language options, but I don't know about you.

    If you have Windows 7 ultimate installed, will offer a series of language packs for Windows 7. Install the English pack and switch.

    If this is not ultimate, you might be able to contact Dell and get the English version of any edition had the laptop. I would not be surprised if they charged a fee for this.

    Hello

    Of course, you can change the operating system and install another I wonder what OS you prefer?  :|

    I think that you can not install the new OS because the HARD drive is not visible. Am I wrong?
    Fact is that the G20 series supports RAID functionality. You must install the RAID driver before you continue the OS installation procedure

    The RAID driver can be downloaded from the European pilot of Toshiba page and should be included in the operating system using an external USB FDD drive.

  • I want to change the fonts, but didn't get the message 'no police system available.

    I am trying to edit a PDF pamphlet created by another party.  Using Acrobat Pro Mac OSX.  I select "edit the text of the document" and then try to remove or change the text and get the message. "all or part of the selection has no available system fonts, you can add or remove text using the selected font.

    I don't see any bar of another way to change the font or font format.

    Is there a way to work this?

    More to 'Acrobat answers' Karl Kremer of the AUC has answered a similar question.
    He wrote in part:

    "I assume that you want to change the content of a PDF file, and you can't do it because you do not have the installed font that is used in this file. That's how Acrobat: you must have the font in your document installed on your local computer in order to make changes to the text that uses this font. There is no way around that. You will need to know what font is used for the text that you need to edit and then acquire this font (and that usually means buy this policy, unless you are subscribed to for example CC and this policy are available through TypeKit).

    Another option is to select all the text and replace this text with a different but similar font. Again, you can only use a font available on your computer as target police. But once you've done that, you should be able to edit your document.

    You change the font by selecting tools > content edition > Text Edit & Images, and then you select the text you want to change, and your police target. »

    Hallo all

    Can someoane help me with this little problem?
    I have a portable satellite A210-128 with a hard drive of 250 G 4200 RPM (* slowest *)... I want to change the hard drive with a hdd 2.5 "Western Digital 320 G 7200 RPM (* speed *).

    Question:
    1. If I buy a disk sata2 hard can I put on my laptop because my A210-128 has a disk sata hard?

    2 can I I install vista on this new hard drive on my vista dvd, im asking this because I want to be shor that my recovery dvd * RECOGNIZES THE NEW HARD drive * and I can install a new copy of windows or installing dvd can * only works with disk drives hard toshiba *... ???

    Thank you.

    As to the question;

    (1) I think a SATA2 HARD drive would go because the standard SATA2 is compatible to the bottom. But I assume that the system will operate as a good HDD SATA.

    (2) Yes, you can install vista using the Toshiba Recovery DVD. It shouldn't be a problem with a fresh install

  • How to change the system of Turkish language to English?

    Original title - the system LANGUAGE

    My system language is Turkish, and there is no provision to change it, all my Windows updates are in Turkish, I've been to the site to update Windows 7 and downloaded the language packs but there is no English in the list and it is because there is provision to uninstall English as a language that I don't want to do. I want to change the language of the system that my OS is Windows 7 Ultimate is there a way I can change the language of the system without re-formatting the hard drive?

    Any help would be appreciated gratefully.

    David Oldfield.

    David,

    you don't have to uninstall Turkish. With Windows 7 Ultimate edition, you can have as many languages as you want on your system. After you install the English language pack, simply choose the language you want to display (as described previously).
