If you can't upgrade to Windows XP Home ed, you may need to check with
Compaq as to a Pre-Installation Prep kit they provided just after the
release of Windows XP for their customers. Something to do with a incorrect
date / language setting as well as some other OEM config's that aren't the
regular sort of thing that Windows XP expects to upgrade.

Also you can check the following article:

"The Language of This Installation of Windows Differs from the One You Are
Installing" Error Message
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;282089

Maybe next time more of a message would help in getting some useful
assistance.
