[Joaquim]

Restore a saved registry.

If you didn't backup your registry, you'll need to reinstall.

Isn't it to be expected? 

[Joaquim]

i just did now and no effect the 'Start' menu button stills 'Start' and not 'Iniciar'(Portuguese)

i did more search and i found the answer

1 - on 'start' menu, we select 'run' and we write 'sfc';

2 - here we select the option 2: "extract file on instalation CD";

3 - we select the 'explorer.exe', on 'c:\windows' folder;

4 - after these, the Windows ask for reboot... after that the 'start' menu, will be 'Iniciar'.

it's fixed... but  i need ask 1 thing: i belive the problem was the 'nusb33e', the USB installer.... but why changes the 'start' menu?

NUSB includes english systems files replacing whatever os got. I had same issue on finnish Windows 98SE. One option is to manually replace files with right ones from extracted NUSB
