Where are these Vista Enterprise MUI source files?

I am looking for Vista Enterprise Multilingual User Interface (MUI) source
files and so far I haven't found them yet.

1. I know I can download Vista Ultimate MUI through Windows Updates and it
worked for me. While I tried to install Vista Ultimate MUI on Vista
Enterprise, it failed.

2. I know MS's document said I could get the language packs from the Vista
DVD disc for the language I wanted. MS said the language file on Vista
Enterprise is called LP.CAB. From MS licensing site, I downloaded the Vista
Enterprise of that language and found no any MUI source files.

3. I know MS said I could get the media of the Vista Enterprise MUI files.
My Vista Enterprise reseller contacted MS and found no answer.

So, I am running out of options. Can someone in Microsoft or Vista MVP tell
me where I can get these Vista Enterprise MUI files? I know how to do the
work but I just don't have the source files. Why are they so difficult to
get?

I really appreciate if someone can provide me some answers or hints.

Thanks,
Dean

It is hard to find because Vista Enterprise is a Volume License edition. You might have better luck in the MSDN forum concerning this Vista Enterprise version

Thanks for showing your sympathy. :). Vista Enterprise is a VL. MS should
have the MUI files available either on its licensing site for download or
via the reseller chanel for media delivery. In Windows XP, I could easily get
MUI files. But, in Vista, the thing becomes very different to go through.
Ironically MS has all its words in its documents but no real bits for me to
get.

Hi,

I really appreciate your help by posting the links. I did download these two
files as you posted. When I executed them, they showed "Vista Ultimate
Language Pack". After I ran them, Vista Enterprise didn't show the language
that was installed. So I have the follow-up questions.
1. Can "Vista Ultimate Language Pack" be installed on Vista Enterprise?
2. Can this .exe file be extracted to LP.CAB file (defined by Microsoft) so
I can install it through Control Panel
3. Or, do you know the right way to install it on Vista Enterprise?

Again, Thanks for your prompt help.

(1) No
(2) No
(3) Get the language pack for Enterprise from the MSDN Subscriber page or have the owner of the Enterprise Volume license get it for you from MS
