Please advise how to burn all updates, i mean where to get the installed
updates. I have two computers with win xp home with sp2 but need to copy the
critical updates from one computer by burning to cd but cannot fine the
updates except in add remove programmes.
Any assistance provided will be appreciated.
 
Hi,
Using Windows Update doesn't leave a redistributable .exe file on your system.
I would suggest set Windows Update to tell you when Updates are available
but not to download them. Then search Microsoft for the KB of the patch and
download the redistributable .exe file. Burn that file to CD. Now you have
the update/patch for any number of PC's you wish to use it on.
This process may be automated with a Server version of Windows OS's. But I
lack the experience to explain how.
Thanks

There you go, all the updates on one page. And the links all go to
Microsoft's download server to get them.
