Hi man, 1.in the 'control panel' go to Regional and Language Options' and make sure that al the settings are correct. 2.did you remove any languages with Nlite? you should not remove - Arabic, armenian, Georgian, Hebrew, Indic, Thai, vietnamese. 3.I also had problems in Nlite with hebrew. so after I'm done with Nlite I edit the WINNT.SIF (in the I386) and change the settign manually. it should look like this: [RegionalSettings] LanguageGroup = 12,1 SystemLocale = "040d" UserLocale = "040d" UserLocale_DefaultUser = "040d" InputLocale = "040d:0000040d" InputLocale_DefaultUser = "0409:00000409" Hope it helps.
