XP Spanish version and English Update pack?

Hi, first of all, thank you very much indeed for putting this all together... amazing work, and much appreciated!

I searched the forum but couldn't find a post related to my question, but excuse me if there is one I was unable to find.

I am nliteing WinXP SP2 Spanish version and when tried to use the update pack (in English of course), nLite shows a warning recommending me not to do so due to language discrepancies... is there any problem if I nevertheless use your update pack? Otherwise, where could I found the update pack in Spanish so nLite doesn't complain about?

Thanks again,

Guillermo

Hi Guillermo, thanks for your kind words.

If you do that you`ll have some english language strings in your install because you`d be replacing some of the spanish binarys with english one`s.

Plus if there are any bug/security fixes that are language specific, they may not be addressed for your language by the english binarys. This might not be an issue but it`s a possibility that you should be aware of.

What you can do is either take your chances and use the english pack, translate it or hope someone else does, or download the spanish versions of the updates and let nLite slipstream them for you.

Many thanks for your prompt response!

I will take the risk and go with the English update. I am beyond a newbie and searching for all the proper updates in Spanish will take me ages... and probably due to Murphy's Laws, I will miss the important one...

I will install this in my eee 900 and will let you know if something exploded or burned ;-)

Thanks again, wonderful job you are doing mate!

Cheers,

Guillermo
