Windows 7 Home Premium Language Issue

    Hi Guys
    Just bought a machine from Germany which was shipped with German OEM version of Home Premium. I've installed the software and discovered I cant change the OS language to English as this is only available on Ultimate. Anyone have any suggestions?

    I know there's a program called vistalizator which will alter MUI files but I see people having problems with Windows activation saying that their copy is not genuine after installing this.

    Will I need to upgrade to Ultimate?:(

    Didn't you get the option to choose English when you installed the OS?:confused:

    Can you download a trial copy anywhere and use your key for that one instead
    Even to add an English LIP you have to be Ultimate or Enterprise
