Did you just install the Q patch? The newest patch has language support and uses new characters for the text... so you are probably set to Japanese at the moment.
Just do this:
-Goto your cfg.txt file in your main LFS folder and open it up.
-Scroll down and find the line that begins with "Translation" (Yours probably says 'Translation Japanese')
-Replace that text on the same line with this:
Translation English
I think that should fix it :up:
(This thread should be moved to Support forum probably)
