I have the US release of WindowsXP Professional and have set the
language to Japanese. I used the option used specifically for
non-Unicode programs.
(See Start->Control Panel->Regional and Language
Options->Advanced->Language for non-Unicode Programs.)

I just tried to install the SDK and the installer, compiler, and most
all the other command-line tools report back in Japanese. Since my
knowledge of the language is not advanced enough to be able to read
error messages and what not, is there an English-only version of the
SDK available from Sun's website (or elsewhere)? If not, are there
some switches I can use with the installer to force it to install in
English?
