The Notebook Review forums were hosted by TechTarget, who shut down them down on January 31, 2022. This static read-only archive was pulled by NBR forum users between January 20 and January 31, 2022, in an effort to make sure that the valuable technical information that had been posted on the forums is preserved. For current discussions, many NBR forum users moved over to NotebookTalk.net after the shutdown.

    Windows OEM keys do not contain the language. It is coded into the disk itself, and therefore you can install with a disk and than activate with a key of another language, the installation will be the one of the disk.

    You will have to activate over the phone however.
