9.2.9 Multilingual settings for the operating system
Windows MultiLanguage MUI operating system enables users to set the language of the GUI
to their individual preference. Some elements are not localized, however, and remain in the
original language of the system - English.
You should therefore always install English language service packs. Further information
about the language of the GUI, regional settings and inputs is available in the Internet at
http://support.microsoft.com.
