Sorry, you can't. You'll have to buy an English version of
Windows.

This is useful as I was about to ask the same question for purchase in Spain.

I thought I could switch languages in English version of XP ?

Sorry, no you can't. There are a limited number of things you can
do, such as change the keyboard style to be that of another
country, but the versions are language-specific.

Keyboard languages can be changed, but not the main body of XP..

Hi

You can't change the Language of XP. You will have to purchase a full
retail English version of XP. You can then either install the English
version instead of the Italian one or dual boot both versions.
