My computer and my laptop (which has ceased to function- permanantly) both run XP, and while my laptop was operational, it somehow managed to support Japanese text. I was using a program for a Creative MP3 player I used to have, and when I closed it (probably a "Not responding/End Now") a message came up all in Japanese. Surprised, I went on the internet and it was correctly displaying Japanese text.

Now on my PC which I'm using now, I had that program already installed, so it can't be that that made it support the text. No-one installed any language packs on the laptop (can't find the XP disc anyway). So I assume it could already support it and I just found out later that it could. But now I only have my PC to use for learning Japanese, and I've downloaded Japanese language packs countless times, all to no avail. I have Microsoft Office, set my browser to support Japanese text, and still nothing.

Help?

Goto your regional and language settings in the Control Panel and add/change it to Japanese...

I tried that- but it said I needed the XP CD-Rom, which I can't find for !@#$%. It's been lost for years.

Or you could search on the internet for all the files that you're missing, I had to do that last time I didn't have my XP cd, although it was an extremely difficult process.
