run the "global" setup for IME from the CD on English platforms. You will find this under the Extras folder, look for the "global" folder. (e.g. EXTRASIMEKOREANGLOBAL) This folder contains the setup executable, which can be run on non-matching language platforms.

As for the English keyboard these are the steps to install it.

Choose Add/Remove Programs from the control panel
Choose Multilanguage from Window components
Check the Cyrillic check box.
Your machine will now install the files necessary to handle English. Be prepared, you many need your setup CD. Make sure you let your computer reboot to get all file properly installed. Now you need to do the following:

Choose the Keyboard Icon from the control panel.
Click the Language tab.
Click the Add button.
Choose English in the drop down box
OK all the way out to Desktop.
You should now see the Blue 'EN" box in your system tray at the right-most-bottom of your screen. Click on this when you are in Office 2000/XP and then you should be able to choose English for your input.

Hope this helps.

As a general rule, having Korean fonts are not enough to have Korean language support (that applies to any language). That's why Microsoft does not distribute fonts by themselves.

If you use Windows 2000, to restore the files you have deleted, uncheck the check box for the Korean language in the list of language settings for the system (in the "Regional Options" applet), restart your machine and then select it again. All missing files will be restored on your hard drive.

Otherwise, if your OS is not Korean-enabled by itself:

If you need Korean support in Internet Explorer and Outlook Express, you may get it at http://www.microsoft.com/ie.
If you have Microsoft Office with Korean support and have removed part of the files, you may restore them from your Office LanguagePack CD (Language Pack CD2 if you use Office 2000). See more on the Office web site at http://www.microsoft.com/office
