Windows Updates...

[Simian]

I'm in the process of re-installing windows XP on my main rig and I don't want to have to sit and download every single update since SP2 was released...

Is there a site or resource to get them all (as up to date as poss!) on CD or summut so I can install em at my leisure!...

If this is a naughty question please can someone delete!..

I'm not 100% sure but i think you can create a windows xp with the updates already on by using a program but I've forgotten the name of it

You mean slipstreaming them?

You can - either with nLite or RyanVM's Integrator.

autopatcher is ok.. but anyone could put that together, it has loads of hotfixes that are superceeded by newer ones that autopatcher also has

ryanvm's hotfix pack is the best, but its for pre-windows install only

-ie, you use nlite to slipstream the hotfixes into your windows disc before installing

they are RAR'ed so you download all of them then unzip Rar1. This will release the ISO then you just burn to disk and run.

Here's SP2 updates in one bundle direct from MS. When I downloaded it, it was about 266 Mb

edit: I thought they kept that download up to date beyond just SP2. I second thought I guess not. Sorry.

Zen your .rar's all point to the same file on your site.

The OP needs all updates since the release of SP2.

Thats the point, the file is split.
Unrar the first & it'll link to the others & join the file while un-raring

Yes, the file is split... but if there are 5 links supposedly pointing to parts 1 to 5, yet they all point to:

http://www.zen62619.zen.co.uk/unattended/files/UpdateCD3.part1.rar

Then it ain't going to work. I'll take a wild stab in the dark that renumbering part1 to part2 etc will work.

probably

Tried that!... Winrar got confused!...

 

[bledd]

use nlite with ryanvm pack

by far the best

He means the download link, Change rar1 to rar2 & it'll probably download the 2nd part etc. Not renaming the files
