I got a cd of Ulead DVD MovieFactory 4.0 Suite SE with my asus DVD Burner and when I installed I was suprised,it was chinese version not english.On cd there's a mark ( a circle with # in one dislplaying English and some chinese letters).
How do I install english verison of this software from this cd??On cd there are 3 folders under Setup folder both named chiese and one english,but even when I run setup from english folder I get the same chinse version of software.

I don't know if there's a solution... but there is a name for that: THE GRAY MARKET. The retailer/re-seller gets a low cost on a product destined for another country/market. It's not against the law, but it's usually against the manufacturer's rules. So, that kind of thing is usually not done by an authorized distributor. Sometimes, the manufacturer won't honor the warranty on gray market items.

I assume you got a "good deal" on this drive, and that you bought it over the Internet. It's probably too late and too much trouble to return the drive, and a flaky vendor that does stuff like that might make it tough.

In case you don't already know, the "free" SE version is not the full version. If you decide to buy Movie Factory, download the trial first and then ask Customer Service if the upgrade will work with your Chinese SE version. I suspect that it will. (You could also ask if they will exchange the disc, but that's a long-shot.)
