I'm just really curious. All my friends who are asian have their windows in another language like chinese or korean.
What I want to know is how to do that, if I wanted to. Would I have to install something to get it to be like that? Cause somehow whenever I get Apple updates for my iPod software I get it in Korean... If there's another thread like this, I'm sorry and please redirect me ^-^;;

PS - How do I get the dictionaries for other languages other than French and English?

You can use what is called Windows MUI (Multi User Interface) but I believe they have to be purchased with a legitimate copy of Windows.

Or you can buy a Windows XP Korean or Chinese.

You are able to see Apple updates in Korean because in your regional settings you set non-unicode programs to run in korean. you can change that by going to the Control Panel > Regional and Language Options > Advanced tab > change the English.


here's a link to the XP MUI info: http://www.microsoft.com/globaldev/drintl/...q.mspx#MUIques1

Another alternatives would be to install Windows Vista Ultimate.
