I recommend that you obtain a replacement OEM installation CD in your preferred language:

You indicate that the recovery CD is 'multi-language'. If so, you should be offered a language choice during recovery setup. If no dialogue box appears conferring a choice, I must assume this recovery CD is not 'multi-language'.

Recovery CDs generally run ~$20, but if your laptop is still under warranty, you might be able to simply swap the installation discs.

I thought everyone in Switzerland spoke German, Italian, and English?

Also change the Language to English from German and that at least should cure the Language issue.

You can then restore from your Backup to recover your Data.

Do you have a theory regarding what happened during setup? Is there a known problem with Fujitsu-Siemens 'multilingual' installation CDs?

But maybe the Regional Setting was not set to the Native Country. About the only thing that makes any sense. But I'm not sure in this case.
