I see. Thanks for the info

Thanks for report. It seems that Mim0 made a few errors during creating that extension. I've already fixed that, but I'll release new version after I'll fix problems with Server updates and DirectX (I haven't got any ideas BTW). EDIT: Could anybody give me an info about this update?

Try this link: http://people.freenet.de/MisterMoster/hfslip/hfslipfc-100501-100501.zip It seems that Mim0 forgot about changing filename

You have created that INI before HFSLIPFC was splitted. You have to create new INI - it looks like that old configuration file messes up with options for Windows 2000.

New version released. I decided to move MSXML2 to Windows updates, because it's shipped with IE 5.01, which is by default included in Windows 2000.

There's no sign of that in KB article, but when you compare binaries from these updates, you can see that KB981669 supersedes KB958655.

MSXML2 was shipped with IE 5.01, which is by default included in Windows 2000 SP4. Fixed. New version will be released after I clear the situation about MSXML. EDIT: I am working on merged HFSLIP FC now and I shortened the main configuration file (it's attached to that post). hfslipfc.ini I need to ask if I am modifying script correctly, though: REM -------------------------------------------------------------------- REM Check if DX9 is already extracted REM -------------------------------------------------------------------- IF !OS!== 2K ( IF EXIST !xdx9File! ( SET dx=DX9X ) ELSE IF EXIST !d9File! ( SET dx=DX9 ) ELSE ( SET dx=DX7 ) ) ELSE IF !OS!==XP ( IF EXIST !xdx9File! ( SET dx=DX9X ) ELSE ( SET dx=DX9 ) ) Is that code correct?

MSXML: I based my HFSLIPFC 2K on bristols list, but according to this, MSXML2 (like MSXML3) is already included. Could anyone give me versions of msxml2.dll, msxml2a.dll and msxml2r.dll from Windows 2000 (if they exist on CD)? I need to check these updates from bristols list, but I haven't got 2000 disc now. DX9: I had a small discussion with bristols and in fact it's up to user - he can use DX9 standard (I call it "lite") or DX9 gaming ("full" - DX9 standard + additional binaries mainly for gaming). Sections with DX9X: REM -------------------------------------------------------------------- REM Check if DX9 is already extracted REM -------------------------------------------------------------------- IF EXIST !xdx9File! ( SET dx=DX9X ) ELSE IF EXIST !dx9File! ( SET dx=DX9X ) ELSE IF EXIST !d9File! ( SET dx=DX9 ) ELSE ( SET dx=DX7 ) That code checks if exists: 1) extracted DX9 for gaming 2) unextracted DX9 for gaming 3) DX9 standard (unextracted) 4) no DX9 redistributables DX9 gaming don't supersedes DX9 standard. I think I'll change that code a bit.

I extended your SP detection to simple OS and SP detection few minutes ago: REM -------------------------------------------------------------------- REM Detection of operating system and Service Pack already included in SOURCE REM -------------------------------------------------------------------- FOR /l %%i in (1,1,4) DO ( IF EXIST SOURCE\cdromsp%%i.tst ( SET sp=SP%%i SET OS=2K ) ELSE IF EXIST SOURCE\WIN51IP.SP%%i ( SET sp=SP%%i SET OS=XP ) ) I'm not exactly sure how to do that for automatic updates, though. I was thinking about my own site with updates, but also with hotfixes. I'm still thinking, though

New version released. Sure, no problem HFSLIPFC 2K has been already prepared for automatic update BTW. I think both HFSLIP FC's could be released as one f.e. after the May updates, but I also think it couldn't be any problem for releasing it earlier

I'm not making a promise, but I'll think about that

Thanks again :-) First post updated.

Thanks for all, stephan_bauer. I updated the first post and a link to HFSLIPFC 2K.

HFSLIPFC-2K (HFSLIP File Checker 2K) is an extension for Windows 2000 users for HFSLIP File Checker. It's based on list maintained now by bristols. HFSLIPFC-2K Changelog:

They're still part of the DirectX 9.0c Redistributable.

I sometimes have the same problem with HFSLIP and HFSLIPFC. Unfortunately, you have to use one of the earlier OS.

New security update - KB980192: http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/ms10-018.mspx

New optional update - IE8 Compability View List: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=65136BD7-3C1A-42BE-A173-A253E0482401&displaylang=en&displaylang=en

You have added KB961451 on your list, but you didn't do it in the file checker: unknown: HF\WindowsXP-KB961451-v2-x86-PLK.exe Where is that update on your list? I don't see it anywhere.

Do you integrate IE8? No, I don't integrate IE8. EDIT: You added KB978506 on your list, but the date of update is still from KB975364.

Your file checker still list KB971691 as an wrong update: wrong (S): HF\WindowsXP-KB971961-JS57-x86-PLK.EXE (MS09-045: JScript Scripting Engine)

Update from 25 January - IE8 Compability View List: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details...;displaylang=en

Checking existing updates for wrong, obsolete or unknown: --------------------------------------------------------- unknown: HF\WindowsXP-KB968006-v2-x86-ENU.exe wrong (S): HF\WindowsXP-KB971961-JS57-x86-PLK.EXE (MS09-045: JScript Scripting Engine) Check missing updates for Windows XP SP3: ----------------------------------------- missing (O): HF\WindowsXP-KB968006-v2-x86-PLK.exe (Fix for Windows Installer 3.1) KB968006-v2 is available only in English. Your file checker shows me also KB971961 as wrong despite setting IE6 in hfslipfc.ini. EDIT: Your file checker shows KB968930 as an obsolete update, so why do you still list that update on your list?

I've found this in the description of .NET Framework 3.5 addon: EDIT: Since I have XP SP3 I've never seen this update on Windows Update, but I'm not sure in 100%.

I was thinking about the same earlier, but somehow WU still wanted from me KB961118 when I didn't integrate it.
