Exclamation Can calibre work in Chinese WindowsVista?

What i do know is that calibre onced worked well in my Chinese WindowsVista. But strange problems occured from yesterday. Every time even i click the English versino UserGuide in calibre, error message popped up, reading: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xd2 in position 34: ordinal not in range(128). And at present all Chinese lrf files(saved as utf-8 text files before convertion) onverted show many strange codes though they worked well before and i never changed any settings!
I do appreciate your help! Thanks a lot.
