Hi Thomas,

LOL. It's called "¸Ë¸mºÞ²zû", if you can find the "pattern". I'm
not sure about the icon since I'm in Win2k, but it should be the
second pane for Win95/98.

Did you try the MS Download Center at <http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/>?
Now at the left hand side, chose "Find download in English". At the
right hand side, Choose "Internet Explorer 5 (not 5.01!)" for
product name and "Windows 98" for operating system, then find an
item called "Internet Explorer Microsoft Global IME 5.01". Along
with it, you may download the proper language support. I remember I
could download just the language support (for display) without
downloading the IME (for input), but either I remember it wrong, or
that option is removed.

Well, it's more complicated than that. English Windows with Chinese
language support is not the same as a Chinese Windows (and not just
the interface language and help files are different). The former may
be enough for you, but it depends on the applications you need to
run.

In device manager? Not necessarily. ;) It's more likely in mixed
language.
Be forewarned that installing display card driver written for
English Windows on Chinese Windows system sometimes cause more
troubles than it would solve. Backup before proceeding is a prudent
thing to do here, or be sure you have the original driver ready.
