Adding Thai Language To My Computer

[mcfan]

I am having problems adding Thai language to my Computer.

I get so far then it asks me to re intall the XP disc which i dont have here in Thailand.

I am not sure i have this disc any way. When i purchased the computer new in Australia it was already loaded with Windows XP. The computer is an ASUS laptop. 1 year old

My wife was using a program from the internet then cutting and paste to reply. She is Studying externally for a degree.

However she changed something on her hotmail account and now this method 'no work'?(her words)

Any help would be great.

It needs to be real simple as i am computer challenged.

Thank you for your time

Normally there should be an "Recovery" Partition on the Laptop. Check with the manual or the Asus Website about this.

May you will be able to create a set of Recovery CD's.

If you can't get it solved on this way, PM me and I'll contact you with an other solution.

If I understand you correctly, this is just the page encoding on your webpages (hotmail). If you right click on the web page (that is supposed to be Thai script, but looks like garbage), then select encoding, you should be able to see Thai as a selectable language.

You should have a folder on C: with the installation files, it's usually called "i386".

When asked for the CD use the browse option to navigate to this location and away you go
