About Vista SP1 MUI Language Packs
MUI stands for Multilingual User Interface.
There are full (100%) and partial (80% according to Microsoft) MUI language packs.
Full languages change entire Vista environment, partial languages lack some localization and the untranslated user interface is always in English, regardless of the original Vista display language:
- Bootloader: Multi-boot menu, Safe menu options, Memtest
- Administrative Tools: Task Scheduler, Event Viewer, Services, Advanced Firewall...
- Group Policy (Vista Business only)
- Some help files
You can use these language packs in 64-bit Vista with SP1 or even in 64-bit Vista RTM (original release of Vista without a Service Pack).
To find out your system properties (32/64-bit, SP1 installed or not) go to Control Panel -> System and Maintenance -> System or right-click the Computer icon in Start menu and select Properties.
