Time Capsule: Faith of the Heart

For all you, mandarin muttering ppl and banana man dunwannabee out there in this world:

It might be common knowledge, but I just found out about it today. Do you know that you can  actually type chinese without installing any additional exterior programme if you are using XP. Believe it or not, its true. Just follow the steps for setting this option up:

1) Go to START

2) Go to SETTINGS => Double click CONTROL PANEL

3) Double click REGIONAL AND LANGUAGE OPTIONS

4) Click the LANGUAGE tab and click DETAILS

5) Click ADD

6) For INPUT LANGUAGE column find and click CHINESE (PRC). PRC stands for People’s Republic of China incase you brainy-iacs, don’t know

7) Check (which means tick) the KEYBOARD LAYOUT/IME and find CHINESE (SIMPLIFIED) - QUANPIN. This means that you will be using romanized chinese pronouciation method of typing. This method is a bit slower than the touch pad, but most of us have been living with this for quite some time now.

Click OK  and OK and OK.

9) Now to test this baby out. Open up WORDS and start typing. If you wanna use back English just click the windows icon at the bottom of your screen, should be on the lower left.

Thanks to Kheoh for telling
