The following is a simple tutorial for enabling your computer to type the Japanese text. Similar steps can be taken for Korean Chinese and other languages. If you don't have Windows Vista the following link might cover what you need to do.

The steps are generally similar in Win8, but the interface/layout is quite different and possibly confusing for a new user. Here is a brief tutorial to adding a language in Win8.

As usual, go to the Control Panel, click on Add a language (or search language in the search bar.)
Clicking Add a language will bring you to a selection of languages. Choose the language you want. Some languages will prompt the Open button instead of Add, as they have further options for you to decide on.
Now that you have added a language, click on Options to confirm/select the input method you want.
