I was checking in google today and saw that MUI packs are only for 2000 and above. What is the method for changing languages for win9x? I want to change pretty much the whole system. Start Menu, Folders, everything I can.

Buy a copy of Windows in the language you want or use Reshacker to change the strings of dialogs and menus in the relevant system files.

PS : If you choose to go the Reshacker way and want to change folders names as well, you'll have to edit the registry under the "Shell Folders" keys.

And probably other stuff as well that I cannot figure out should be changed. So buy a new copy in the language you want, it'll save you lots of time and hassle.

No, there isn't. A lot of localized strings are hardwired in a lot of files (DLLs, EXEs, ...)
