Hi everyone,
I recently got a laptop with Windows 8.1 installed on it and have been having problems with installing and running visual novels.
I never had any problems when I was on Windows Vista or 7 and I've done the same thing in changing the region, date display, and language display to Japan/Japanese.
But on Windows 8.1 the installers I've tried for multiple visual novels just shows characters as gibberish and so I avoided trying to force install anything to avoid any problems I may encounter from not being able to understand what the checked box next to the gibberish means.
I have the Japanese language pack installed by default and my Internet browsers can type and display Japanese perfectly fine.
Does/Did anyone have the same problem and successfully solved it? I did a quick search of the forums and didn't find any threads on this so please direct me to it if there is one already that addresses the issue.
