Answer 1 :
I don't have problems with this on my Mac, since I can change the language anytime I want (rotflmao). Anyway, if you want my serious opinion, your English version of Windows might not use the right format that your Japanese laptop uses (Such as the NTSC/PAL areas. For example: you can't play American tapes in British VCR's, etc.). So, you're probably out of luck unless you know a work around in this problem OR you know fluent Japanese. I hope that helps. Good luck!

i've fixed a japanese mac for a customer before , and didn't speak a word of it.. how did i do it ? i had 1 other machine beside it with english version beside it.. normally the menu layout is exactly the same. you need to install an english version of windows on it, boot off that disc, and it should appear in english, failing that you will need to do what i did with the mac.. i would advise against buying it for a number of reasons, even though it maybe cheaper. 1)worldwide warrenty - can you get support in your OWN country? 2)keyboard layout 3)some programs need additional fixes for japanese systems (one music program i use does) I would see if you can get a UK etc. spec laptop NOT a japanese spec'd one.. but thats more probable in countries like malaysia (where they make more)
