Where is the rest of W2k SP?

G

Guest

Went to W2k Service Pack download site, read how to, etc. Page indicates that
the express SP installation is 644kb+15mb. Downloaded file and the 644kb came
thru, but where is the 15mb? Tried to open the SP.exe and error message says
there is a linked .dll file missing, which is probably on the missing 15mb.
Any help out there?
Thanks

Hello,

The 615k download is just there to launch the setup/download of the rest of
the service pack.
It should have launched immediately after downloading. It sounds as if the
download didn't complete properly and/or you had some kind of network
connectivity problem. Which link are you using?
Here is the main Windows 2000 link:

http://www.microsoft.com/windows2000/downloads/servicepacks/sp4/default.asp

You may try downloading the Network version if you have a fast enough
Internet connection--I believe the download is a little over 100 MB. There
is also a link to order the Service Pack on CD.

Please let me know if this helps.

Thank you,

Thank you,
