Try :language en<Tab>, this will probably show you the name(s) of available English locales. :language C should work in any case. After you figure out what works put it into your vimrc, guarded with :if has('win32') (linux locales have different names, except for C locale).

Usually vim ships with all translations at once and untranslated English variant is for sure embedded in the executable. You should get it with C locale.
