    Hi peeps.

    I am married to a Chinese girl and she uses my computer. This has caused a few problems in that for her software/websites to be readable under the advanced settings of Regional and Language Options I have to set the language to be used for non-unicode programs to Chinese (PRC). This doesn't cause too much trouble apart from it occasionally screws up the pages I want to view and gives me grief when trying to install anything new as it assumes that I want to do it in Chinese.

    I created a User for her and tried setting my non-unicode programs to English and have hers as the Chinese, but that doesn't appear to work as it will use whichever was the last option selected no matter which user is used.

    So the question is... Is there any way that XP Pro can be configured such that her requirements are met with Chinese (PRC) unicode and mine with English (UK) unicode??

    Thanks in advance.....
