In Windows, go to:
Control Panel > Regional and Language Options > Languages (tab) > Text Services and Input Languages Details > Add (add the Chinese pinyin input or input method of your choice for Chinese) > Choose a keyboard layout > Under Preferences, check your Language Bar settings to make sure it is visible.
The commands for toggling between languages can be found in Key Settings.
If you have further questions or problems don't hesitate to ask!
