My brother wants me to download a patch onto disk for him
from the Microsoft website. However, I do not see any
options when I do updates for saving to disk instead of
installing on the hard drive. Can this be done? If so,
how? Please note - this is not a situation where he has
a pirated XP program or anything - he has a Dell with
Windows XP that was factory-installed that has crashed ,
therefore he does not have acces to the internet. He
called Dell and they have suggested that someone download
this patch so that he can install it and try to restore
his computer without having to use the recovery disk,
because supposedly this patch, if it works, will keep him
from having to re-install all the software he has
purchased since he bought the computer.
