List of Localized MS Operating Systems

The following tables lists the many Localized versions of Microsoft's Operating Systems from MS-DOS 5.0 up to and including Windows Server 2003 Itaniumreleases.

Each table includes:

•	The localization language.
•	The system default LCID when you clean install the o/s (in both hex and decimal).
•	The default system code page when you clean install the o/s.; Remember NT, Windows 2000 and Windows XP are Unicode based; Thus the code page column represents the code page used when converting Unicode to another character encoding to be used by a non-Unicode application).

Click on the version of an operating system that you would like to view for what languages it was localized.
