Windows Update

[Dajan]

Hi
Is there any way when I am updateing that I can put them on a cd instead of
inatalling them direct to HD, and can I get the one's I have already got
onto cd. I am going to format soon and I dont want to have to go through the
whole update process every time I format as this will take a while.

You can also download individual updates from the Catalog and save to be installed later.
http://catalog.update.microsoft.com/v7/site/Home.aspx

Click Add button for each update you want to download. Once you have what you want, Click
the “Go To Download Basket” link. Type in or browse to the location where you want the
updates saved to and then Click the “Download Now” button.
Once downloaded, you can then burn them to CD.

For security and other patches released for a given month :
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/ms##-***.mspx
Replace ## with the two-digit year
Replace *** with the three character month abbreviation

Providing there are releases for that month, you will see the list of "critical"
"important" patches for that month
Check on the 2nd Tuesday of each month - later in the day.

For just the current listing:

Sorry, you can reuse the ones you've already received via WU.
