    I have my operating system I want to pass English to Spanish. The CD of the operating system (VISTA) that came with the laptop says:
    Supported languages:
    English
    French
    Spanish
    German
    Japanese

    That means it is multilanguage? and therefore I can install Vista in Spanish for example?

    Thanks for your answers.

    I am not sure. I think only the ultimate version does multiple languages if im not mistaken, right?

    I mean you can try it and let us know.

    Actually, I was doing a Vista installation on the E6400 I recently sold, and I do recall seeing options for other languages on the first page of the Vista installer. Obviously I didn't try to see if any of them would work, but I think it looked pretty legit. That was Vista Business with SP1 FWIW.
