XP understanding japanese 1 ^^...

Well, this is a mini-howto (Part 1) for set your OS for understand japanese webpages and software ^^...

Note: the snaps for this tutorial are of spanish OS, but I think is valid for other occidental versions of XP ^w^...

The material will be:

• Your PC with XP installed (Home or Pro, SP1, SP2 o SP3... mmm, any occidental language, I think ^^)


• Your original XP installation CD ^^ (If you have a PC with preinstalled OS no problem then ^^)...


• The session must have installation permissions o¬O...

IMPORTANT: If you installed a bricopack or patched your XP to use third visual styles, you must uninstall your bricopack (After you will re-install O,O) or restore your system using the same patcher (After you will re-patch O¬O)...

Hands to work n_n...



First click over Start, then go to Control panel and click over Configuration regional and of language (Correct me please TwT)...



Then a new window will open; select second tab Language and mark the option Install files for oriental Asia languages as show the pic ^¬^ (Correct me too TwT)...



Open the third tab Advanced options and check of list every Japanese n_n...



When you finished click over Apply/Accept, and then system will copy the files and will reboot o¬O...

After reboot you can eject your installation CD of the drive and system are ready for japanese browse, display japanese files and run most of japanese programs ^w^...

Some programs will require additional software for run, but is for next howto, OK ^^?...
