Using the SP2 RTM network install dnload

C

CZ

FYI:

These notes are from using the 266 MB dnload for the following
installations:
XP Pro: SP2 RTM over SP1 and over SP2 RC2 (w/o uninstalling RC2).
XP Home: SP2 RTM over SP1.

Steps I used:
Place network download file on computer (266 MB).
Disconnect from Internet.
Disable antivirus s/w.
Disable all firewalls.
Dbl click on dnload file.
(per tests, installation takes about 30 minutes)
Reboot per the prompt.

After reboot:
Defragment hard disk (no prompt to do so).
Review MSIE zone settings if you normally use non-default settings.
Review the MSIE Trusted site's “Require server verification (https) for all
sites in this zone” setting if you normally have it unchecked.

While I don't see them listed, I have to think that Office 97 and Office
XP/2002 will work.
