Can LabView Japanese be installed on Windows XP MUI with Japanese as the default language?

Question

I recently set up a computer for a client in Japan using Windows XP PRO MUI version.  When they tried to install their Labview Japanese, it "turned into garbled characters."
From the Microsoft link it appears there are some differences between a fully localized Japanese Windows and the MUI version"
on localized versions:
The user interface resources are fully localized.
The
Windows Setup information, such as system locale, user locale, keyboard
layout, etc. is customized for the specific language/country. This is a
policy setting with the Multilingual User Interface Pack.
Additional country specific device drivers are added in the East Asian versions only.
There
is support for upgrades from localized versions of Windows 9X or
Windows 2000 to localized Windows XP. MUI only supports upgrades from
English versions.
Because the resources used in a localized
version are used to create MUI, there is no difference between the
actual translations. This results in a nearly full localization, apart
from small elements that are still dependent on:
INF files.
UI strings stored in the registry.
etc.
My question: Should it be possible to install Japanese Labview on top of Windows MUI with Japanese set as the user language and default language?  My assumption was Yes, but now they appear to be unable to get this to work.  Are there specific workarounds, policy changes, or drivers that can be done to get this to work?
Thank you in advance for any help or insight you can provide, or if you can point me to a better place to post this (I don't know Japanese myself).

Hi,
Here you have some interesting tutos about foreign languages in LV :
