how select language of WinXP during booting?

Posted: 08-16-2004, 04:31 AM
Hi

Because of my MSDN subsription i have access to the WinXP Multilingual discs
and i installed a few additional languages.

But how can i choose now during booting which languages will be used ?
(choose like it would be different OSs, i.e.; other ways are also fine)
Can i modify somehow the boot.ini for providing me this?

Thanks
Peter

Peter;
People are often asking how to change the language and I always have
to tell them it can't be changed.
So I finally get to give a different answer.
See this link for that and many other questions you may have:

#5 under "Installation & Administration" for your specific question.

Thanks for your reply Jupiter, but i already knew how to change the language
when WinXP is already running

I guess it's impossible to change the language during booting, or isn't it?
I only need to know where the the chosen language is saved, should be a
simple entry in the registry

Thanks anyway
