Most People know this I dedicated this for people who were ignorant of this...

Now I will explain the steps:

First Download Google IME from http://www.google.com/ime/transliteration/

Installation Procedure

(If you are on a 64-bit Windows, make sure you have selected the 64-bit radio button in the download page) and run the installer and follow the instructions on screen. 

• More than one language IME can be installed on the same client machine.
• Requirements are Windows 7/Vista/XP 32-bit/64-bit operating systems.
• Only one instance of IME will be installed per machine but the configuration is done for each user using IME.
  

Configuration

If you want to use IME with any application like notepad, you must first open the application and then open our IME. IME can be opened by clicking on the language bar on the desktop and then selecting the IME language icon or through a shortcut key if it's already configured. To close IME, you can change the language in language bar or try right clicking on the current application to see whether it supports 'Close IME' popup menu option or by closing the current application.

Displaying Language Bar

• In desktop, right click on tool bar and select Toolbars -> Language bar
  
  

Enabling Language Bar

If the 'Language bar' option is not visible in 'Toolbars', then it needs to be enabled through control panel:
