Windows XP Pro by itself doe not have the capability to change languages.
The Multilingual User Interface (MUI) can only be installed on Windows XP
Pro English and would allow you to change the language.
The downside is the MUI has very limited availability:

Have you asked Dell if they can change the language for you?
There are Spanish versions of Windows XP Pro and Home and you may need to
purchase one.
By what you describe, Windows XP Home in Spanish may be your best option.

I purchased a Dell computer as a gift for some children residing in Mexico
and it came with an OEM English version of XP Home edition. Dell tells
me
that if I buy the XP Pro upgrade, then I can designate Spanish as the user
language.
I also see that there are Spanish Versions of XP HOME out there. As the
prices are about the same is there some reason that I am missing that
would
make Spanish Home a better choice over XP Pro.
These children will likely be using the machine as a standalone without
internet access and without access to support.
Any guidance would be appreciated by me (and ultimately y these kids)
.
