    I’m working in a windows domain, and I need certain users to be able to switch their language to japanese and back to english. Logged in as myself with an administrator account, I can do this, but for a normal user, the drop-down box to select language is unavailable, and it says “as a guest user, you cannot change the display language.” What do I need to do to these accounts so they are not “guest users?”
    Thanks.

    Hello, I read the information and the comments above. If you can help me with a question that seems to be simple: I live in Japan and I want to buy a new pc bundle with Ultimate. I’ve just read that Jhinge can’t change the language in his Dell pc and the support service says it’s impossible: Is that possible? or, the guy didn’t really change it properly? or the people from DELL have no clue???
    I’d appreciate if you can answer my question. Thanks.

    Edgardo: If you install Win7 in Japanese you cant change that language later, I tried for about a day of searches, I found it easier to just make a new installation of Win7 with the language I needed. Those pre-installed pc, notebooks are crap, they come with way too much stuff that nobody needs and nobody really uses.
