Bursar 0 Posted May 19, 2000 I live in the UK, and have purchased a Windows 2000 upgrade from NT4. Windows 2000 itself runs fine, and I don't really have any problems with it. However, it niggles me that the System Locale is set to English (United States). All of my regional settings are set for English (United Kingdom) (or English (British) - can't remember exactly which it is now). During installation, Windows 2000 tells me I can change the System Locale, but I can't figure out how to do it. It isn't causing me huge problems, but Quake II (for instance) won't install because it is a UK copy, and will not install under a 'foreign' OS. If anyone knows how to fix this, I'd be eternally grateful. Share this post Link to post
Bursar 0 Posted May 19, 2000 It's OK, I've got the answer from the Microsoft Support line. Apparently you go into the Regional Settings in Control Panel. At the bottom of the General tab is a button labelled 'Set Defualt'. Clicking this will bring up a dialog where you can choose the System Locale. Not exactly intuitive, and not really the kind of thing I would expect a 'Set Defualt' button to do, but there ya go. Share this post Link to post
