21 inch screen, all in one - a ton of speed & power and all the goods. Problem is it is all configuerd to spanish from the start menu.... literally. Just unpacked it and hereñs the 1st post.
HP USA says call Peru and get a recovery disk for a reset. I¨m not sold on that plan unless thatñs the onñly route.
Any ideas warmly welomed.
Long story from work in Lima but here it is. Shipped all the way from S Amnerica.
Model # 200-5030la.
Hey, here is something for you. Almost all HP's now have a recovery partition built right in. Hit the F11 key as soon as you see the blue HP screen when you turn the computer on. It should take you to recovery manager where you can pick English and re-install. Give that a shot. Just remember to back up your data before you do this. Also do a destructive recovery.

HP USA tells me that the warranty is no longer available to me for tech support but say it´s live in Peru. Tomorrow I´m calling HP in Lima to see if this is actually the case. (computer´s not even a year old). I´ll let you know if they are able to give me a hand on the conversion because believe me, if I start punching keys without some backup, then I´ll screw everything up.
Thanks for your help lipps...really appreciate it.
