Need help to type chinese in Vista Home Premium Edition

[Guest ChinEe]

Hi

 

I just bought 1 new pc for my 7 yrs old son, so that he can type chinese

for his school homework.

 

I am in Canada.

 

I have "Vista Home Premium Edition". I thought i can type chinese tradition

like what i did in Windows XP Pro,

where , if i typed "Hong", it will bring up a small windows with

some closer word in chinese that matching that "hong" ..

-hong (red color)

-hong ( another word )

 

I changed my language to Taiwan tradition and i can type chinese

but the problem is.. it did not display the proper chinese word

or there isn't any pop up windows that i can choosse

the closer chinese word for the pingying

 

The same problem for my Windows XP HOME edition.

 

Is ther anyway, i can type Chinese in Ms Office (For student)?

The reason i bought this pc is for my 7 yrs old son to type chinese?

I knew Vista Business version can do it

but impossible to upgrade my Vista to Business version just because of the

for my 7 yrs old kid to chinese in word?

 

Please advise me..

I really need help.

 

Actually, my sisters also bought 1..we bought 3 computers together on

Aug 16 2009 just because of kids school home work

now, we all stucked

 

Please..

thanks !
