Hi,

Can anyone help ?

I am using XP Home version and have always been able to
see Chinese characters (eg. www.mingpao.com). But when I
turned on my notebook this morning, I can only
see "squares" on my screen. Can anyone help here ?!

Many thanks.

Anthony

Greetings --

Have you tried reinstalling the East Asian support under Language
and Regional Options?
