 |
|
I know in Win7 Ultimate you an change the language, but I'm not sure, does it apply changes for all users or individually?
I'd love to set it so I can have a 'Korean' Login for userA and a 'English' login for userB, is this possible, or easily done?
Anyone know? Cheers! |

Fairly easy to do in ultimate. Not possible on other versions.

I've got the language sorted now, anyway to sweeten the keyboard?
I installed it with a English Keyboard, which I guess is now default, and now can't remove it even after adding the korean one. The korean is set to default, but still seems to like loading the English one, you then have to select the korean board and then tab between languages using the dedicated key, hindsight says if I chose Korean during initial install I'd only ever have to just be tabbing between them =/ |

Have you done this yourself, or just from reading what Win7 can do from online reports?
I ask because I found using the language pack only got me 50% of th way to Korean. A lot of error messages that pop up are still in English not Korean, and when installing software all the prompts are in English not Korean, as well as the start bar being 80% Korean and 20% jibberish, the random ASCII kinda character errors you get when you try to load say a japanese website with no language pack installed.
So all in all not useful really.
My plan is to format, and reinstall choosing Korean as the default Admin account language, then create a separate account in English to do the actual setup on.
Or anybody else got any dual language pointers? The disk I'm using is English, could a Korean Disc be downloaded and the same key used (or just hacked either way?) |

It seems like the best thing for you to do is as you say;
- Format
- Install Korean Windows 7
- Create separate account and choose English as default language
In regards to CDKEY, I don't know if you'll be able to use the same one, worth a try.
In regards to cracks, the language of Windows doesn't affect the crack, so you'll be good to go. |

| i switched my language for win7 ultimate k to english. and when i activated my admin account and logged in it was in korean. so i switched it to english too. so you should have no problems creating multiple accounts with different languages. |

Yeah, no real problems, but the feature doesn't work that smooth from my experience.
I installed again of a K disk. setup two users made the second account English, but half the start bar/WindowsUpdate/Timedate on the start bar etc all stay in Korean. There doesn't seem a way to get perfect language on either user account. I'll just live with it, and google for screenshots of how to do certain actions to use as guides. |

it's 99% in english. some software like apple, nero, avid, ect auto-install the korean version instead of letting me chose which language i want at install.

It's a useful link, and what I ended up doing to fix it before.
The 4 minute youtube vid should be 4 seconds though: just remove your English keyboard. Done. |
