Setting OS Language

Before installing you need to set your system language for Japanese. If you have installed some Japanese games before, you may have already done this. An Engilsh system can work fine with this left on, but if you wish to turn it back, just follow the directions again and select English.

On Windows system, in the Start menu open your Controls Panel. Open Regional and Language Options.
There are 3 tabs in the window, select the 3rd on Advance. In panel for Language for non-unicode programs, use the drop-down menu and select Japanese.

Optional: You can also turn on the Language Bar in this control panel as well. This allows you to switch the output of your keyboard and alternate between English and Japanese. Helpfull if you know Japanese characters and wish to type them.
