When a user logs on, the appearance of the system and a section of help files associated with the system components, change to Bulgarian.

The Bulgarian Interface Pack is based on the English version of Windows XP.) ========================================================================= 2.0 BEFORE INSTALLING BULGARIAN INTERFACE PACK FROM THE BULGARIAN INTERFACE PACK CD ========================================================================= Before you install the Bulgarian Interface Pack, you must complete the installation of Windows XP Professional from the English Windows XP Professional CD.

Important Note: Bulgarian Interface Pack installation will not be completed until the administrative user that began the installation logs back in after the system has re-booted, and prior to any other user logging on to the system.
