Hi,

From a previous post:

Start/run msconfig, click on "expand file" (general tab)

File to expand: imm32.dll
From: X:\I386
To: %windir%\system32

Where X is whatever letter is assigned your CD drive, change it accordingly.
Reboot when finished.

Or copy IMM32.DL_ from the CD into the Windows directory then type EXPAND
IMM32.DL_ IMM32.DLL
