Click "Change Keyboards". In the new dialog box, click Add. Scroll down in the list to find "Japanese". Expand the tree and check off the checkbox for Japanese and Microsoft IME. Then just click okay and click okay to the rest of the dialog boxes to exit them. You should now be able to see Japanese characters and switch between keyboards to type in Japanese.
Thanks for that. I was able to do it at home so can now read/type Japanese. However at work i don't have the admit rights so it won't work.
Shame really as i do almost everything at work.

Guess i'll just have to go on at home more.
