Help - I've inherited a laptop set up in German!
Many & varied apologies for asking this in such b-a-s-i-c terms (am a bit of
a techno-retard, a fact of which I am not very proud...) ....but I've just been given a hand-me-down lap top which is running on Windows 98 - entriely in German. Tragically, I have about a 10-word German vocab (and no, I won't provide it for you to laugh at!) I've been able to guess my way into what I've fairly sure is the languages/display section (a challenge) and I'm at a point where it's letting me choose between English (Australien) and Deutsche so I think I'm on thr right track... but it won't let me change the default language without a CDROM (and I know it wants CDROM because fortunately the words is the same for both languages! My firends don't have the relevant CDROMs any more/with them - they're fresh off the plane, so to speak & didn't bother bringing such (useful) trivia with them. Can anyone help me by letting me know what I need to get hold of (what's the name of the CDROM) and if this likely to be impossible? - in English please!! I don't think I'll be able to get downloads onto the laptop beucase it's not net connected (and is effectively unusable to me for now!). Thanks a million in advance, Anna |
