I had no idea where to post this one. If you know of a better place that would get me answers, please email me where i should have posted it. thanks...

i was in japan recently and i got an online game that they only have in japan (by the way, the game is a free download and free to play online) and i really want to play it. There in lies the problem: the programming language it was written in is only compatible with japanese windows or korean windows. when i try to run the program, this error comes up: "This client can be executed only in Korean code-page"
Does anyone know how i can fix this without having to purchase a japanese version of windows? I was thinking maybe there was like a shell program or mini OS program that can run foreign language coded programs, or something like that. or also, is there some setting or patch for windows that would fix this problem? thanks for the help. i greatly appreciate it.

Welcome, exarkun,

However, I don't think you'll get an answer to your question in this forum, especially because you haven't specified what language you're dealing with. I doubt it is PHP (it could very well be something this site does not cover), though.

I would try asking on a forum for this game (if there is one) or e-mailing the maker of the game.

Perhaps you could even ask in a Windows forum, but I would go for asking the creators of the game first.

Sorry this probably wasn't the answer you were hoping for. Good luck, though!

HTH,

There are only two stupid questions: the one you don't ask, and the one you ask more than once :-)
