I've had to do this on a computer installed with a Japanese version 
of XP (you think Deutsche is tough? try figuring out a help page 
written in Kanji).

Kevin's suggestions may do the trick, but I've found that there's 
usually one more step required to reset the language to English.  Go 
onto the MS Support Site and download the *ENGLISH* version of one of 
the XP Service Packs.  You might have to look for an installation for 
system administrators to use on multiple machines (that's what I had 
to download and burn to CD) since MS's annoying little update tool 
keeps getting in the way of a normal download.

If you install the English-language version of any of the Service 
Packs, it should knock the XP installation back to English.  You'll 
still need to follow Kevin's previous instructions, but this is the 
final step to switch everything over.
