Remove the codepages, and localize using this procedure: http://wixtoolset.org/documentation/manual/v3/howtos/ui_and_localization/make_installer_localizable.html
saving each Localization Value in a different wxl file, then build an MSI(1 for each language value), then Bundle them all using Burn, and allow users to choose a language. WiX is Unicode Aware, therefore you're getting Illegal Unicode Values. Windows Codepages are 8-bit encoding, but Unicode is now,at least on my linux box, UTF-8. UTF-8(WiX) and Windows(CodePages) are not equal, as you have found out.
