I got a windows 98 from a friend awhile back, and I decide to use it today, but the
problem is that almost everything is in Taiwanese. My computer is this symbol "我的電腦"...I
want the system to be in English, so I can use and understand it. Can anyone help
me here? Please! THANKS! Also, it there a way to use Japanese character when typing?
p.s.And I don't have a Windows 98 disk

If you want payware that does English, *purchase* that:

If you plan to use an operating system from Micro$oft,
you need to purchase a distribution CD;[1]
that corporation doesn't give away that sort of basic stuff for free.[2]
You will need a CD at some point--like when messing around with international fonts
...or when you hard drive takes The Big Sleep.
[1] an ENGLISH distribution CD.
[2] ...as opposed to Linux--which gives away ALL the software for FREE.

this is the problem.
"p.s.And I don't have a Windows 98 disk"
There is no way to convert, you need to obtain a Windows 98 CD. Win98SE would be
the best.
Try eBay or ask around locally. Should be an abandoned Win98SE CD some where.
