Problems with Asian Characters

[Frankencow]

I've tried out PRC Simplified Chinese and Japanese but I either get a bunch of ?????? questions marks or dots, question marks and incorrect characters. Why doesn't this work for me？

You must change your Windows' regional and language settings to use that language before loading the subtitles.

I've opened SSA Cyrilic subtitlle in Divxland Media Subtitller and Y got some weird simbols like "Çàòîà, Ãîñïîä Áîã ãè ïðîòåðà Àäàì è Åâà
I'm using Windows 1251 encoding.
How can i fix this

Whenever I try to configure SSA subtitles to font/script:Chinese_GB2321... It just goes back to "Occidental" automatically, & displays gobbledygook "Chinese" in the s-t table and "ο»Ώδ½ ε¥½οΌÅ’ε¦ˆε¦ˆοΌÂ" etc. in the text bar, even though the Chinese in the .txt or .srt files is correct (and in UTF8).
Even when I select "Convert from -> UTF8", it just converts to "???,??!"
