Windows Update


Recommended Posts

Hi

Is there any way when I am updateing that I can put them on a cd instead of

inatalling them direct to HD, and can I get the one's I have already got

onto cd. I am going to format soon and I dont want to have to go through the

whole update process every time I format as this will take a while.

You can also download individual updates from the Catalog and save to be installed later.

http://catalog.update.microsoft.com/v7/site/Home.aspx

 

Click Add button for each update you want to download. Once you have what you want, Click

the “Go To Download Basket” link. Type in or browse to the location where you want the

updates saved to and then Click the “Download Now” button.

Once downloaded, you can then burn them to CD.

For security and other patches released for a given month :

http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/ms##-***.mspx

Replace ## with the two-digit year

Replace *** with the three character month abbreviation

 

Providing there are releases for that month, you will see the list of "critical"

"important" patches for that month

Check on the 2nd Tuesday of each month - later in the day.

 

For just the current listing:

Sorry, you can reuse the ones you've already received via WU.
