do you mean that you want to change the word "Start" to something else?

You can do that with WindowBlinds www.windowblinds.net

Actually, if you don't use Windowblinds, you can change the text of the start button (the word "start") by editing the file "explorer.exe" with a resource editor. Here is a link that explains how:

At you own risk though. Make a backup before.
