problem with thai characters
i have a program to learn thai , also writing system, it was always working ( and still) on my old computer, but since i changed to a new one, i am unable to get the thai characters ,instead i am getting ,fe D, F,% etc instead , i think it must be a setting problem somewhere , or can it be that my former computer had XP , and now i am using vista, it's not working?
thanks for any advice as i am not really a computer expert......

If you have the CD-ROM for Vista you can try this-
Add language support
1. Click Start and then Control Panel
2. In Control Panel, if you are in Category View, click on Switch to Classic View
3. Open Regional and Language Options in Control Panel.
4. Click on the Languages tab.
5. Under Supplemental language support, select the check box beside the applicable language collection
6. Click OK or Apply. You will prompted to insert the Windows CD-ROM or point to a network location where the files are located. After the files are installed, you must restart your computer.

Re: problem with thai characters
it is a program by courage software....., maybe i must go look the settings in my old computer and compare....
Re: problem with thai characters
Good Idea to check the old settings.
So you can type Thai and see the characters on the screen correctly?
Can you see Thai characters on web sites correctly?
If so, sounds like the problem is with the program rather than with Vista. Perhaps the program is not designed to run on Vista?
Can you make any adjustments within the program such as change the font, font size, or screen view size? You could try changing those to see if it fix's the problem, but I'm just guessing now.

Looks like the program doesn't run on Vista. I found this at Amazon.com: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000MP ... gesoftware
