  Open Regional and Language Options by clicking Start, click Control Panel, click Clock, Language, and Region, and then clicking Regional and Language Options. There find the Keyboard and Language Setup and chose display language.

  –edit–
  As I found out a little later, there seems to be one way to change it with the non ultimate/premium versions, the second link will have the answer to it.

  As I don’t want to steal someone elses answer.

  got tools, then internet optios, then general, then laguage options. Change it to English. This will only work if you have English installed already as an option. If not, you will have to buy the software and have it installed.

  Here’s an answer from Microsoft’s Q&A:

  You can only change the language of Vista if you have Vista Ultimate
  or Enterprise.

  With Ultimate, you can download the language packs for free.
  Just open Windows Update, choose “view available updates”,
  and check the language pack you want.

  Afterwards, from Control Panel (categories view), just choose
  “Change display language” under “Clock, Language and Region”.
  Pick your language, log off, log on, and done.

  If you have another version of Vista other than those two,
  such as Windows Vista Home Premium,
  you’ll need to purchase a “full version” of Windows
  Vista in your desired language and perform a “clean install” or
  install it on a separate partition or drive (dual-boot).

  The complete answer is listed below, along with the original question.
