Cannot upgrade my Windows 7 display language...Help!!

[johnny78716]

I download a Traditional Chinese language pack (iso) from Microsoft Connect and I followed the instruction that i found from internet to change my windows display language from English(default) to Chinese but I'm having problem to install it....

In the installation windows after i browsed for the language pack file it tells me that "the language cannot be installed in this computer" (see screen shot below)...Any help?? Appreciated!

My windows 7 version: v 6.1 Build 7077

Is the the pack designed for Windows Seven? I scoured google but there are no Seven language packs.

That was for build 7000 not 7077, just wait 5 days and install the RC it should have the same language packs as build 7000.

Is that the RC Build 7100 that you're talking about?...
Actually I'm downloading one of the Build 7100 that was leaked on internet
Microsoft Windows 7 RC1 Build 7100 [x64 + x86] - Sharing Centre
Wondering if they are the same...Thanks anyway!

I can't vouch for the torrent being legit but yes build 7100 is RC, however you will need to wait 5 days to get access to the language packs.

Hey guys, a friend of mine needs help installing an English Language pack for his laptop, he has it in French.

He wants to change the display language. Unfortunately his laptop's Windows 7 is not Enterprise of Ultimate. And in the tutorial it says that this is only available for those versions of Windows 7.

Any idea how I can help him? He has the Windows 7 Professional.

Sorry Tawa,

Unless he has either Ultimate or Enterprise, he cannot install a language pack. The only thing he can do it try to come up with a French version of Windows 7.

Well, the thing is, his Windows 7 is in French He wants it in English.

Anyways, thanks for the info. I'll give him the bad news properly.
