From what you told us, it looks like you will have to purchase a full retail
version of Windows.
You should be able to create a dual boot system if you want to keep the
Greek version, or you can start with a clean disk and install an English
version.

Usually the recover disk can only be used on an original/same language
already installed.
Windows 7 is the latest version and works much better than previous
versions.

Good luck,

Hi from Greece . I have a problem with a Targa Vista Home premium computer
I bought here in Greece to replace my old computer .I felt confident the
it would work in English because the box was written in English .However ,
when I booted it for the first time, it came up in Greek... my knowledge
of technical Greek is very limited, so I spent happy hours trying to get
it into English .I eventually admitted defeat and called Targa, who
explained the o/s was Greek only but I could buy an English recovery disk
, but would loose some of the features , because it would be installed
alongside the kernelled Greek o/s. My question is this , how can I
transfer the English language portion over to the Greek kernelled
operating system , it doesnt contain that item , it goes thru the motions
of accepting a language change , but on re-boot defaults back into Greek .

thanks esxman .
