Hello all,

I have English windows xp and dont have a problem with writing Korean fonts as I installed the East Asian languages from the windows xp menu. BUT I have a problem when some pop-up windows come up and show question marks and gibberish when it should be in korean. Does anyone have any ideas how I could change this

Thanks

Dave

There was a thread here a while ago with the solution in it. I can't remember exactly, but I think you have to not only download the East Asian languages pack, but also set the unicode options under the advanced tab in the control panel area for languages to Korean. Not sure exactly what it's called because this computer is in Korean so I can't look it up.
