I can't uninstall Languages

[Guest]

Okay, when I first installed Windows Vista (Ultimate Edition) I foolishly
told it to install the other various languages packs during the routine
Windows Updates. I thought that they weren't that big in file size and
therefore would not be a problem, but now I learn they are taking up around 8
gigs of space on m C Drive (40 gig drive). I do have another drive (250gb),
but the C drive is running out of space and I'd like to uninstall the
languages.

Long story short, Windows won't uninstall my languages. I select EVERY
language except for English (required, and the one I want). After the
process, it tells me that none of my languages have been removed. Anyone have
an idea how I can get rid of these languages? The proper way, or perhaps by
another method?
Thanks.

I haven't tried it myself, but perhaps this could be useful for you:

Thanks for the try, but if I'm installing EVERY language except English,
then the LIP should not apply. I have also looked there, so thanks for your
reply.
