Chaoscope interface is in French when it shouldn't be. The possible reasons are:

* The first time you launched Chaoscope, you selected "French" when asked to choose the interface language. (d'oh!)

Solution:
1) Make sure Chaoscope is closed.

2) Run Regedit (only if you know what you're doing, deleting the wrong entry could result in corrupting your operating system)

3) Find the following key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Borland\Locales

4) Locate the value (in the righthand pane) which name is Chaoscope install path. (i.e. "C:\Program Files\Chaoscope\chaoscope.exe") and delete it.

5) Restart Chaoscope. The language selection dialog should pop up again.


* You didn't decompress the install archive correctly.

Solution:
Make sure you extract all the files, including "chaoscope.EN" which contains all the English resources. This file should be located in the same folder as the main application.



* You are running one the 0.3 alpha versions which have been sent to a limited amount of testers. If it's the case, the title bar of the application main window begins with "Chaoscope 0.3 alpha".


Solution:
There's no English translation for these versions. Learn French. :-)

Hope that helps!
