in Spain and purchased it in Spain the language is in Spanish and as I dont

speak Spanish I would like to change the language to English.

You've most probably got Vista Home Basic or Premium on it, which you will

have to upgrade to Ultimate. Then you can use language packs to change it

to English. You will still have the Spanish keyboard though, of course.

That depends on what Vista edition you bought. If you have Ultimate, you can

download an English multi-lingual user interface pack (MUI) from Microsoft.

If it is a Home or Business edition you can not, and you should try to have

the retailer replace your laptop with an English speaking one.
