Problem in Win98
In Dxdiag, Msinfo and Internet Explorer I get garbled text. I have put a picture showing what I mean. in that photo I copyed the garbled text and pasted it into notepad. It magically became legible. Does anyone know why it does this?!?.

The same thing happened to me when I installed Japanese language support under Windows 2000 (US-English). Some programs would display the garbled text, but would properly display the characters in some other program. Go to Control Panel-->
Regional Settings and make sure the correct language is checked. Under Outlook or IE go to View-->Encoding-->More and try the different options that encode the Japanese
language correctly.
Make sure you are at a Japanese web site so you can be sure which method will correctly the language. Are you using a Japanese version of Windows or did you enable J-language on an foreign version of Win?
