Well, if MattK's suggestion doesn't help, you're either SOL or you'll need a.

Thank you for your help. But again unfortunately you told me what I know.
As
you can see when you go to the sourse site you gave me, there is no
"Japanese" in the list to select. That's because default didn't install it
from CD but it's still in the CD.
With a PC which doesn't have East Asian Language file installed, you need
to
go...
Start/Control Panel/Regional and Language Option/Language - supplemental
language support/check "install files for East Asian languages"/ Click Ok
/
Then next screen ask you " insert CD" to pull out the file from the CD.
The problem I have is that I lost my Windows XP Home edition CD!
So I can't pull out the file from CD. I could buy another XP CD, but
before
that,
I just wanted to know if I could get the file online or some other way.
Sorry if I'm confusing everyone!!
Thanks,
Yoshi

Some language versions of Windows XP Professional might require
installing
the Complex Script and Right-to-Left Language Collection or the East
Asian
Language Collection [e.g., Japanese], as well as the appropriate input
languages, to properly input and display all characters.

Thank you Mr. Dyer, but I'm not trying to get Japanese version of
Windows.
Windows XP has a program to show japanese charactors and switch keybord
between English and Japanese so I can type Japanese too. But, My PC only
installed languages using alphabet and skipped complicated ones, such as
Japanese, Chinese, Korian, etc. to save space on Hard drive. You can
pull
out those langauge program from Windows XP CD-ROM and install them. I
've
done that with my family's laptop. Mine needs PC viesion CD-ROM which I
lost. I wonder if I can pull it out from Microsoft web site? or I have
to
buy CD-ROm again?

If you want to have a Japanese-language version of Windows, however,
you'll
have to install one.

I
needed to insert windows XP CD-ROM, but I think I lost mine..I can't
find

another
one for this?
Thank you.
