Wrong Regional Setting

Hello
My OS is W2k in Spanish, buy I've changed the regional settings to work with
dates formatted in English.
In spite of this,
System.Globalization.CultureInfo.CurrentCulture.DateTimeFormat doesn't
reflect that setting, and I don't know how to make it work.

I've done the above changes, restarted my machine, then rebuilt the solution
and nothing happens.

When I do a DateTime.Parse(string d) I get an error when the day is greater
than 12. For example: 13/1/2006 would work, but 1/13/2006 won't. This is, it
is working with Spanish formats.

This is what I get in my Command inmediate window:
System.Globalization.CultureInfo.CurrentCulture.DateTimeFormat
