Korean Language OS Workable?

[aduidarnenye]

I live in South Korea and am planning on buying a new desktop computer. I don't want to spend millions of won on an English language computer so I intend to buy a Korean language computer. Will FFXI still install and run properly on a Korean OS? I just want to use the new computer to play FFXI on and nothing else.

You mean a Korean version of Windows?

It's probably either:

A) Hacked version on windows
B) Full version of windows with Korean language
C) Some version on linux

Both A and B will work fine. C will not

[Shuemue]

Yeah that pretty much covers it. Was gonna say that if it's Windows, just install the appropriate language packs and it'll be fine.

Korean language version of Windows on a brand new computer bought in South Korea. Most of the computers here are sold with the Korean version of Windows, this being South Korea where they speak Korean. Windows is made (not hacked) in languages other than English!

I did, however, managed to get a fairly inexpensive English version of Windows in Electronics Town for this computer I bought today, so it's all okay.

they dont mean hacked as in "i hacked in the korean language support for windows"

they mean hacked as in korea and china and other 3rd world asian countries are notorious for using pirated versions of windows

like that english version of windows you bought... does it have a COA? i bet it doesnt... (coa = certificate of authenticity)
