tomasz86 Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 Windows 2000 updates normally support simplified Chinese (zh-cn) and traditional Chinese (zh-tw). However, the SP4 is also available for traditional Chinese, Hong Kong (zh-hk). I have briefly compared the three packages (w2ksp4_cn.exe, w2ksp4_hk.exe, w2ksp4_tw.exe) and the files are in fact different. Also, as far as I have seen, no other updates are available for this zh-hk version. Does anyone know what is up with this "special" release? Was there a separate Windows 2000 version for Hong Kong?

For example I know as you can install to Windows 2000, Microsoft Speech Platform and Office 2007 packages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have found several packages in Google that are supposed to add language components related to the Hong Kong Chinese but this still does not explain why there is a whole separate SP4 release 14 hours ago, Dibya said: HongKong builds are made for few office but got leaked by Pirates.

I am just curious why only the SP4 is available for "zh-hk" and the rest of the updates are not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This may or may not help you: Any chance this version is in Cantonese? I'm aware Hong Kong is where Cantonese is spoken along with Mandarin and even shares many (but not all) Han Characters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want to make english 2k to japanese Unfortunately MUI is not available to download for free. You had to pay for it. MUI for 2K is buggy anyway (works properly only if IE5.5 is used for system shell) so I would not bother. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes but in case of 2K they have not updated it so the system will only be partially localized if you install IE6. The overall experience is very bad (your local language mixed with English everywhere). You need to stick to IE5.5 for it to fully work, and even then the translation is kind of buggy. All in all, MUI for 2K seems to be half-baked, especially compared to the one for XP/2003. Edited June 3, 2016 by tomasz86 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
