Posted: Mon Apr 19, 2010 12:37 pmSo i find plenty of reason to stay on XP instead of going to Vista or Se7en... But since XP is outdated it will have problems.. I was having one here ... i got no help from google, brew, yahoo answers, youtube.. so i accidentally cam across it and fixed it... How? here :
Step 1 : Insert Your Windows XP installation disk.
Step 2 : Open Control Panel.
Step 3 : Click on Date, Time, Language, and Regional Options.
Step 4 : Click on Regional and Language options.
Step 5 : A pop should appear, Now click on the Languages Tab.
Step 6 : Check "Install files for complex script and right-to-left languages (including Thai). You should get some message, click OK. Now, windows is going to start copying some files, let it. (if prompted to restart, do NOT restart!)
Step 7 : Check "Install files for East Asian languages". You should get some message, click OK. Now, windows is going to start copying some files, let it.
Step 8 : Close everything and Restart.
Done.
