This means Windows cannot find Japanese characters in the font used.
Strange thing is, it works just fine here (on English Win XP) with
default fonts, which is what you should be using if you didn't change
any settings.

Do you have support for "East Asian" languages enabled in languages
preferences of Windows (sorry, I don't know where exactly it is,
somewhere in the control center)? If you don't, try enabling it. This is
my best bet, but it's strange the edit control finds the font -- but
then, richedit control does some fonts magic of its own...

If it is enabled and still broken, try setting the fonts to something
with large characters coverage (e.g. Tahoma or Arial) in
Preferences -> Editor -> Fonts.

No, I really mean _fonts_ settings -- see above.
