language change.[solved]

Post by fiddler_on_the_roof »

i have 2 questions.

1-Is it possible to change the language on a Computer game?(eg, from a foreign language to English?)

2-Is it possible to change the language on a computer, and also, what part of the computer determines the language(motherboard?), and how would i change the language?

thanks

For a game, you buy a copy of the game, with a certain variety of languages. Some versions come with different languages, some games (like SWBF) has only a single language per version. It really just depends on the game you've bought. Changing the language of a copy with multiple languages can be selected in the installation progress or in the options menu, or something likewise.

For a computer, usually you can change it, for Windows, you usually select which languages you want to install. I think it maybe is possible, but I'm not too sure how. For other OS's, you'll have to wait for other people who have more experience with them.

ok, thanks.

I think that under control panel, there is a button called languages and settings or something, could that change your language?

Yep, Control Panel>Date, Time, Language, and Regional Options>Regional and Language Options. You can change the language and other related settings there for the entire computer.
