How to change language of error messages

Question

Hi All,
I'm a newbie of Oracle XE. I have installed Oracle XE to Window XP successfully. However i want to change the HTML UI (http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex/) language and error messages to English (now is in Chinese).
i have read the installation guide and i tried to change the registry key ORACLE/KEY_XE/NLS_LANG from TRADITIONAL CHINESE_HONG KONG.WE8MSWIN1252 to AMERICAN_AMERICA.WE8MSWIN1252. However, it's not work, even after reboot.
i have searched in the forum but still cannot get the answer.
Please give me a hand.
Thanks.

How to make too most on Linux? There there is no register....
Where what to change?
I have installed XE in english. After that I have changed the coding of base.
update SYS.PROPS$ set value$='CL8MSWIN1251' where name='NLS_CHARACTERSET';
commit;
SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE;
STARTUP MOUNT;
ALTER SYSTEM ENABLE RESTRICTED SESSION;
ALTER SYSTEM SET JOB_QUEUE_PROCESSES=0;
ALTER SYSTEM SET AQ_TM_PROCESSES=0;
ALTER DATABASE OPEN;
COL VALUE NEW_VALUE CHARSET
SELECT VALUE FROM NLS_DATABASE_PARAMETERS WHERE PARAMETER='NLS_CHARACTERSET';
COL VALUE NEW_VALUE NCHARSET
SELECT VALUE FROM NLS_DATABASE_PARAMETERS WHERE PARAMETER='NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET';
ALTER DATABASE CHARACTER SET INTERNAL_USE &CHARSET;
ALTER DATABASE NATIONAL CHARACTER SET INTERNAL_USE &NCHARSET;
SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE;
STARTUP;
SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE;
STARTUP;
Now the input on a home page became we do not read. How it to correct? Not changing the coding of base.
