    Loading English Windows 7 or Vista Home Premium over Chinese Vista Home Premium

    I have a computer with Chinese Windows Home Premium and I wish to change it to English Windows Home Premium or Windows 7.

    Can someone confirm that loading from new English Vista HP or English Windows 7 will do the job. I understand there may be need to use a different boot drive or to partition the disc.

    Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

    No it doesn't work that way. you need to reinstall the thing again.

    Multiboot is possible but probably not recommended (1) your vista PC will take eons to load windows 7 and (2) if you are asking this question then it will be kinda hard to teach you how to create multiboot.

    Best would be to take all the important things out and reinstall the disk in English.
