• Microsoft Windows NT version 3.51 Korean

SYMPTOMS

When the Fixedsys font is used, some characters do not display properly under Korean Windows NT 3.51 for programs developed under Korean Windows NT 3.5.

CAUSE

This problem may be caused by the Fixedsys font change in Korean Windows NT 3.51.

WORKAROUND

WARNING: Using Registry Editor incorrectly can cause serious, system-wide problems that may require you to reinstall Windows NT to correct them. Microsoft cannot guarantee that any problems resulting from the use of Registry Editor can be solved. Use this tool at your own risk.

To work around the problem:

1. Remove the Fixedsys font. Open Control Panel, and then double-click the Fonts icon. From the Install Fonts list box, select Fixedsys, and then click Remove.



2. Add Fixedsys to System mapping. Go to the following Registry key:
   
   HKEY_LOACAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion\FontSubstitutes
   
   Click Edit, and then click Add Value. Type Fixedsys in the Value Name entry, select REG_SZ for Data Type, and then click OK. Type System for the String entry, and click OK.

STATUS
