What I would do is look in C:\WINNT; C:\WINNT\system32; C:\ and see if there are any files spelt in German. Rename or move them out of your path. This is assuming you have not installed the language pack for German. Note that German will usually include the Country code AU in this case and the LCID for it is 1031. So also look for a folder named 1031 on your machine. Don't do anything with it till you come back here and tell us the full path from C:\ where you found it if you do.
