HEEEELLLLLPPPP!
Hi!
I´m frustradet!
I can spell my problem only in German:
Ich habe vor kurzem ein Computerspiel gekauft. Ich musste jedoch fesstellen, dass man für das Spiel Directx9.0 braucht, ich habe aber nur 8.1 auf meinem Laptop. Es ist ein ca. drei bis vier Jahre altes Modell. Ich habe alles versucht um dieses Directx9.0 auf meinen Computer zu bringen...vergebens. Ich habs sogar aus dem Internet heruntergeladen. Auch das hat nichts gebracht. Ich habe den Verdacht, dass meine Grafikarte zu alt ist. Kann man die bei einem Notebook nicht austauschen? Oder welches Problem könnte es sonst noch sein?
Bitte helft mir!
Please help!
By!

Re:Re:Chinese Computer Language Question 2
What is your current version of Windows? Win XP and possibly Win 2000 have Asian character support built-in.
In Win XP, you can enable non-Roman characters using the Regional and Language options setting on the Control Panel. You may need your Windows CD and/or a visit to the Microsoft web site in order to install the Asian fonts. I don't think they're part of the default (US) installation.
Once you've done that, you can switch freely between English and Chinese or Japanese (in programs that support them). In Japanese, you type the word you want phonetically, then pick the appropriate characters from a drop-down menu. Presumably Chinese works much the same way.
I'm afraid I can't help if you're using a different version of windows. There are lots of resources out there for Japanese, so a Google search will probably turn up similar tools for Chinese.
Good luck!

Re:Chinese Computer Language Question 2
Hi Abby,
Here¡¦s my reply to your message #2. I can¡¦t seem to find your message 1 anywhere. Did it get put on later, or do you maybe need to try posting it again?
The strange information you see in many of the windows occur because international characters have been encoded so that they can be recognized by your browser. You¡¦re not seeing the international characters in their intended form because you haven¡¦t set your browser up to decode them. If you are using MS Internet Explorer, you can go to the View menu and select Encoding / More. You will see a listing of many different languages, including, perhaps three settings for Chinese. You may have to try all of these in order to find the one that makes the Chinese characters come up correctly.
I have to confess that I don¡¦t have software on my computer that lets me generate these characters. I had a program some years ago when I was taking Chinese, but it¡¦s not compatible with my current version of Windows. So unless I can say what I want to say by rearranging characters my correspondent used in her message to me, I am stuck with using PinYin Romanization to express myself in Chinese.
If anyone is aware of a font or a program I can download that will allow me to enter Chinese Characters on MLE, please let me know.
I tried going online and looking at this text in your message, but the copy in your message isn¡¦t working correctly. Can you get me the message number of the post where you found this?
Thanks.

Re:Typing using hebrew
Is this in MS Word? Just adding the font to your computer won't tell the software when you want to use it. You have to change your font to the one that has the hebrew alphabet in it.
You're also going to need to configure your word processor to type from Right to left. The procedure varies from one version of S Windows to another, but you should be able to find the instructions for doing this in the help files. Search for help on typing right to left.
Good luck!

To Zhangyan re fixing funny quote marks
Hi Zhangyan.
I noticed your quote marks came out funny when you used them in your last message, like in ¡°tian tian kuai le¡±. MS word always converts the standard " style "striaight quotes" into the 66 99 style "smart quotes," which aren’t printable on the MLE bulletin boards. So they come out looking funny, ¡° ¡±. You either have to change them back after you paste them into the create message page, or you can undo the conversion immediately after you type them in by typing Alt-Backspace right away after MS-Word converts the character.
You can even disable this automatic conversion of quotes on the Tools Menu, in Autocorrect options. Click the "Autoformat as you type" tab, and uncheck the very first selection, "Straight quotes" with "smart quotes."

Re:English teacher can help me
Hi,
I notice you used the term "Greenhand" here. I'd like to comment on that, if you don't mind, but I'll post my comment in the "Slang/expressions" area where people are more likely to look for this kind of information. I'll see you therd!
