Default Problem installing Vista SP1, removing languages.?

So I got the message saying I couldn't install Vista SP1 because I had a language pack that wasn't supported.

So I figured I would just remove the unsupported languages and leave the ones that were supported.

I had about 5 or 6 languages that were not supported (Arabic, Swedish, Turkish, Portugeuse, Greek, Finnish, and some others I can't remember.

So I went to uninstall them and the only one that got removed was Arabic. It gave me this error:
To work properly, other languages on your computer require the language you are trying to remove. This is the case with Language Pack Interface (LIP) languages and their parent languages. You must remove a LIP before or at the same time that you remove its parent languages.

I tried doing a google search to find this solution but I wasn't too sucessful (maybe I am leaving something out).

So I need to figure out how to remove these LIPs and then the languages. Anyone know what to do?
Just to add, I am running an authentic version of Vista Ultimate. It isn't downloaded or cracked or anything, but I did get it as soon as it came out, so my warranty with Microsoft is over.
