Software Deployment: Windows XP East Asian languages

The following script will help you to silently install the East Asian languages for Windows XP. This checkbox can be easy set during the winnt.sif installation or when the image is syspreped. What happens if you did not set this option and you need to change this on more than 500+ Windows XP clients.

When checking the “Regional and Language Options” in Control Panel the checkbox is not set.
