Asian Languages Support

[Volcanon]

I've been trying to download the IME program (5.0.2 or
whatever it is on here) for Chinese (Simplified),
Japanese, and Korean. However I get an error message
saying the program doesnt work on my version of Windows
when I try to install it. I am using Windows XP Home.
It's a fresh copy off the cd too. Any ideas?

"on here" is where? Windows XP comes with a bunch of
IMEs. You just need to turn one on. What are you
downloading?

If you are running Microsoft Windows® 2000, Microsoft
Windows® XP, or Microsoft Windows® Server 2003, you do
not need to download the Global IME (Japanese). We
recommend that you use the Windows version of this IME
instead.

For information about using Windows IMEs, see Windows
Help.

If you have a MS retail copy of XP or OEM full copy, the Asian IME
files are on the CD. If you have a restore CD or recovery CD you may
or may not have the IME files. In any event you need to go to the
following web site and read up on how to install Asian languages:
