Hello Roger, welcome to the Seven Forums.

The attached msinfo.txt file shows you have Windows 7 Home Premium. As Windows 7 Language Packs are a feature only included in Ultimate and Enterprise editions, you are not allowed to use them. If you have language packs installed, and I can see from the second screenshot of yours you have almost all of them, it means you have got them from unofficial sources.

There's a reason why for instance Ultimate edition costs more than Home Premium; you have to pay for the added features like language packs. For me, who have spent money to get Ultimate and those features, trying to get those features to Home Premium is piracy, and I am not willing to help or answer any questions in issues related to piracy.

Second thing is keyboard layout. Some non-Latin based keyboard layouts are a bit tricky to use. This posts shows how to use Korean keyboard layout.

If you need the language packs, you will have to use Ultimate, or Windows Enterprise... As Kari has said, any other method is considered Piracy...

You can use whatever keyboard layout you want to with every edition of Windows 7, from Starter to Enterprise. Your Windows display language stays in whatever language you have installed it, but you can change the keyboard layout. For instance, I am using English Seven Ultimate and Enterprise editions on my PC's but I mostly use Finnish keyboard layout, because it allows me to type in Finnish, Swedish and English.

To completely change the language of Windows 7, you need to have Seven Ultimate or Enterprise. For these two editions the language packs are offered as an optional update. Language paks allow you to change the display language of the Windows 7. Using language packs you can have a different display language for every user account. These user accounts can then independently change keyboard layout used. For instance, this PC of mine with Seven Enterprise has user accounts in Finnish, English, German and Swedish. German account is using German keyboard layout, all other accounts by default Finnish keyboard layout.

In other words, the keyboard layout used has nothing to do with language packs.

Here's a screenshot of my login page on a desktop running Seven Enterprise, showing accounts in different languages:

Sorry, Kari, but you're only half right. Ultimate/Enterprise edition is required to change the display language, but "display language" only refers to Windows' menus, help files, etc. Ultimate/Enterprise is not required just to display and/or type such things as file names or documents in other languages. The problem being experienced by the OP is probably a result of a corrupted font cache. I've had the same problem myself, and had to do some real searching to find the solution, which is actually quite simple:

Delete the file C:\Windows\System32\FNTCACHE.DAT and reboot.

For some reason I can no longer open the attachments on original post, but as you can understand from my first post (number 2 in this thread), the user's problem was partly caused by unauthorized methods used to get language packs working on Home Premium. You can read here more about dangers of hacked third party tools used to get language packs to work on other than Ultimate and Enterprise editions.

This poster did not understand the difference between display language and keyboard layout.

My responses to this OP in this thread and regarding display language and keyboard layout are all absolutely 100% valid and correct, so sorry but yes, I was right.

And yes, you too are right. Partly. Deleting the font cache can solve this kind issues in most cases. In this case, though, the biggest problem was to get OP to understand the difference between language pack / display language and keyboard layout.
