Hello,

I have Windows XP Pro, SP2. I need to conver this workstation into Korean. I have installed the East Asian languages from the XP CD, which has enabled some Korean, such as in Internet Explorer, but the rest of the OS and programs are still in English.

Also, I would like to be able to type Korean characters and although I though I enabled the Korean keyboard, I cannot figure out how to type in Korean. Can anyone help me?

Thanks,
Michael


You cannot upgrade or convert from one language version of the OS to another, so you'll have to purchase and use the full version of WinXP (in whatever language you want) to perform a clean installation.
