Eastern Language, Service Pack 2

I'm trying to install Eastern language pack, but it prompts me for SP2 disc.. which I don't have. Anyway I can can install Japanese language? I don't want to type it, just read it.

actually, windows installer is asking for the WinXp cdrom; you know... the CD-ROM that you used to install Xp in the first place, just insert that disk.

I tried that.. but it needs files from SP2 specifically.. And yes, it does prompt for SP2... since I tried the original install disc, and it didn't work, and it clearly says "SP2"

You will need to slipstream SP2 into your XP installation disk and burn a new one.
