W2K SP4 fails tells me to go to the update and find the Sp4 update

[David Reid]

SP 4 update gets into the archive step and completes

then it says it cannot connect to the webpage even tho I
am still connected to the internet

msg tells me to go to the W2k update sites and find the
SP4 update that does not require an active web connection
to install, however I cannot find any reference to this
update

can anyone direct me to this URL

many thanks

I think they're referring to the "SP4 Network
Installation". It does not require a web connection once
the file has been downloaded. It's called the "network"
installation in that it allows network administrator to
customize it before installing on multiple computers
within their network. The URL is the same...

http://www.microsoft.com/Windows2000/downloads/servicepacks
/sp4/download.asp

A quote from the MS website referring to the SP4 Network
Installation says, "After you have downloaded the
installation files, you do not need to remain connected to
the Internet during the Network installation of SP4."

Hope that helps.
