After you apply the high-priority updates, you will need to apply. NET Framework v2. While Microsoft. And after applying. Now after that is all done, you will need to download the following two updates that must be installed separately:.
After the download and installation of DirectX 9. And once DirectX 9. After the computer is restarted, Windows Update will show two high-priority updates for DirectX 9. After the security updates have been applied, you will need to download the offline DirectX 9. After the DirectX 9. Lastly, download the Windows Media Player 9 Series media player. The size of the download is After downloading Windows Media Player 9, you will need to get it configured prior to using it.
When that's done, there will be the last eight remaining high-priority updates as follows:. After the installation of all of the base updates have been completed, you will need to remove the uninstallation updates which were made. By getting rid of the uninstallation files, folders will be removed and up to MB will be freed. The initial size of the Windows directory after the updates have been applied will top out at 1. On hard disk drive that has 10 GB or less, that is quite a lot.
You will also need to consider installing other components, including runtime libraries for Visual Basic 1 through 6, Visual Studio 6, 7, 7. After running into numerous problems, all of the updates that were available for Windows were performed in Microsoft Virtual PC with MB of physical memory allocated.
Believe me, installing and updating Windows either on a real PC or in a virtual machine can take hours and it is a lot of hard work to get everything working right. I hope that the instructions are useful enough for anyone who wants to re-install and update Windows Please consider downloading and saving the updates and burn them on to a CD or ISO image incase Microsoft ever decides to de-commission the Windows Update website in the near future.
I'm so terribly sorry that this is such a long forum thread, I would like to thank tomasz86 and submix8c for helping me on how to get Windows to access Windows Update again. I don't know how much longer that the Windows Update website will remain up, but without your help, updating Windows would have been an impossible thing to do.
If you have any questions regarding this guide on how to install and update Windows , please let me know and I will get back to you! See your other topic - tomasz86' USP5. Also please note tomasz86 provides a list that maybe needs matched to yours?
Thank you so much for sharing this! While the files that you provided to install IE6 in Win2k are newer, I pointed out the site where you can still get the full version of Internet Explorer, where it doesn't contain the updated files inside the IECIF. CAB files. The updates were later applied after onwards.
As for the purpose of WinZip and 7-Zip, WinZip is a shareware programme designed to open Zip files while 7-zip is a open-sourced programmed designed not only to open files, but extract them to a appropriate directory. For this reason, I should have used only 7-zip and not WinZip in the first place. But that's why I mentioned them in this thread. I'm collecting links to maybe put up something similar to -X- for XP updates.
Bear in mind that HFBR aren't included as you can see. With the archive almost complete, you're doing a lot of hard work on preserving the updates if Microsoft decides to remove the obsolete downloads for Win2k in the future. Most of the updates that are from Microsoft already have the original datestamp. However, users who want to know when the file of the update was published on the Microsoft Downloads Center can look at the Digital Signature by right clicking the mouse towards Properties and selecting Digital Signatures tab to determine the name of the signer and the original datestamp date and time of the publishing of the update file.
It would also be a good idea to start collecting links to updates for Windows XP and Windows Server as well. This is a really detailed guide, ppgrainbow! The difference is that his is about preparing an updated Win2k source while yours focuses on updating an already installed system. Thank you so much for compliment. I appreciate it. It is technically possible to install Windows on the Toshiba Tecra CDT, assuming that the size of the hard disk is large enough.
However, the consequences are that the Windows will require at least MB of free disk space, 32 MB of system memory and laptop will end up getting slow, pretty fast after installing updates and software on the laptop. You will also need to get the largest hard drive possible that will work properly with the Tecra CDT.
I forget to mention in this thread that the official KB numbers are KB for. There is no KB number for. I agree. As for installing unofficial updates after applying all of the available updates for Windows , you should be careful how the updates are applied. The one thing is that after a couple of months after I applied UURollup v10c, I was very lucky to only apply. There are chances that some of the critical files that were applied from UURollup will end up being overwritten with official files from the updates that came from the Windows Update website and the risk are that serious problems with Windows may occur thus prompting a re-installation of the OS from scratch.
All of the updates that I downloaded have preserved the original timestamp. An extension that preserved the modification timestamp that is sent by the server for downloaded files.
I suppose you mean "this topic", don't you? How about adding "Professional" at the end of the title you can edit it when using the full editor? I used the same extension when downloading updates which are available in the Archive. That's why timestamps of most of them are preserved. That's correct. I updated the forum thread as well as the link mentioning the correct KB article for. That is so absolutely right! I'm gonna try to provide more information on how the directories will look like.
I also believe that there needs to be a script to manually apply the updates via a batch file. I cannot test it on the host machine as it will screw up the two year old Win2k installation, but I can try to run it on a test Win2k install. The size of the temporary directory is MB and it has updated files in 52 folders. First of all, thanks for this guide. I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place here. I just can't get Windows Update to work after following this guide.
All of the steps seem to work correctly, but when I open Windows Update, it gets to the point where it asks if I want to do an Express or Custom update, and when I click either one, it gives me an an error saying "Files required to use Windows Update are no longer registered or installed on your computer", and a link to reinstall said files which also doesn't work.
I've gone through this guide four times, reinstalling Windows each time, to no avail. I have also followed the "If Windows Update fails to operate correctly" instructions each time, and no dice. I've also tried are clicking the link to upgrade to Microsoft Update; it just gives me the same error. Install Update Rollup 1 v2.

RAR files it takes some extra work to determine if it is right. As you can see in the. ZIP file examples used thus far, the folder paths are easily seen. This is not the case with. RAR files and is one reason we prefer using. ZIP file even though they do not compress quite as well as.
RAR files. Here is properly constructed. RAR file: but you can't tell that it is from here. RAR files will not be discussed further here. Once you understand how to install from a poorly constructed. ZIP file you should be able to work with. RAR files as well. At this point it is worth remembering that authors often include "non-game-essential" files in their archives. These are usually Readme. These types of files do not need to be installed but, if they are, where they go is immaterial to the game Therefore, all discussion here about the locations of files will presume that these non-essential files do not exist in the archive or that you do not install them.
If they are installed, as far as UT3 is concerned all they do is take up space on your hard disk drive and neither UT3 nor we care about them. A skins archive will almost never have no folder information in it. If an archive has folder information in it, you will need to determine whether it is complete or whether it has folder s listed that do not belong there or that you do not need.
This maps archive has only one folder listed and it does not belong there: How do we know it does not belong there? How do we know that it is not a part of the folder hierarchy? This is one of the complications mentioned above. If we were to go look at these folders and their sub-folders with Windows Explorer, we would not find it, but we have already said that the installation program does not create all the folders that may be needed for custom content.
So how do we know that we do not need to create this folder? The best answer that can be given is " experience. After you have installed a few maps you will realize that whenever you have a map that has a group of. So where do these files go? In exactly the same place they would go if there were no folder information at all What about this skins archive? Thus, we can be sure that "Liandribots," at the beginning is bogus As soon as we ignore the "Liandribots," everything else looks like it should be ok
