| 645414 | 2008-03-01 23:17:00 | Just wait a bit for XP SP3 RTM (hopefully this month (www.microsoft.com)) then slipstream that with nLite (http://www.nliteos.com/). | sal (67) | ||
| 645415 | 2008-03-01 23:23:00 | You can download SP3 wich covers all (most) updates and yes, you can slipstream it into an install disc if you wanted. The SP3 is still pre-release beta, but can be downloaded here (www.softwarepatch.com) - 315 mb |

| 645417 | 2008-03-02 00:30:00 | If you can't wait for XP SP3 go to to http://wud.jcarle.com and download a update list and get each individual update .exe file straight from MS's site. | jwil1 (65) | ||
| 645418 | 2008-03-02 00:35:00 | You can also use a ghost utility like NortonGhost or Acronis. These are very good cos they take a snapshot of the harddrive. So all your apps like winrar/zip/adobe/firefox.......... are on the snapshot and are recovered when you reload it. | jberries (13063) | ||

| 645420 | 2008-03-02 11:41:00 | Yeah use windows updates downloader or autopatcher... | Agent_24 (57) | ||
| 645421 | 2008-03-02 12:19:00 | ok downloaded that windows updater and the windows xp file for it gives a list of all the updates. Is it all upates like old and new versions or is it all of the lateist? | bluezone (12434) | ||
| 645422 | 2008-03-02 20:38:00 | I think its all besides Office updates. You have to download the ulz files and run them so they extract in the install folder. To keep them up to date every mth tho. |
