This is the third time I re-install Vista, and it keeps failing while trying
to install the English Language from Windows Update.

I have managed to copy the ORIGINAL downloaded file from Windows Update
about the English Language. However, it has no file extension, and it has a
bunch of numbers and letters for it. I renamed the file with the .cab
extension, and managed to extract the files to a certain folder. I went to
the Install Languages under Control Panel, and pinpointed it to the folder
where I extracted the files. It says, that there isn't no installation files
there. But there is a bunch of folders, and .MUI files in them. What can I
DO? You guys at Microsoft are tempting me to go with either Linux, or Mac
for software solutions as their software doesn't fail that much.
