Thanks brutus1234. Very helpful. I'll go through your list one by one.

324446 - Installing this manually caused me problems, so I deliberately left it out. My notes say: "2k hangs after login, Explorer fails to start. Avoid". I'll try slipstreaming it. If anyone else has this installed, please let us know here.

837789 - Good find. Will add.

838018 - For Server, and anyone who chooses to install Front Page Extensions from the Win2000 installation CD. Not installed by FDV's fileset. Will add.

838141 - 839228 already includes Rastapi.dll 5.0.2195.6824.

896414 - Scesrv.dll is indeed amongst the source files. Will add.

897711 - Ditto.

932590 - This hotfix was not released for 2000. However, MDGx produced an unoffical 932590 installer for 2000 - did you use that?

922667 - I guess this was left out initially because FDV's fileset does not install COM (it's often said that hardly anything requires it). But will add.

888111 - Will add this, although I am not sure myself whether or not portcls.sys 5.0.2195.6906 and sysaudio.sys 5.0.2195.6906 are fully backwards-compatible with non-High Definition audio devices. I'll add a note. Can anyone add anything here?

811392 - This tool doesn't exist in the Windows source. On balance, I think it shouldn't be listed.

I have this slipstreamed along with the others.

Thanks guys. I've updated the Windows 2000 Post-SP4 Updates for HFSLIP page.

Thanks for the feedback regarding 324446. As yet I haven't added it, but hopefully will do so soon (I need some time to try it myself). Meanwhile, if anyone else has used it, please say so!

932590 - This hotfix was not released for 2000. However, MDGx produced an unoffical 932590 installer for 2000 - did you use that?

Thanks PROBLEMCHYLD. I stand corrected. In general I'd prefer not to link to updates hosted on sites like Hotfix Share, but I made an exception here. Use at your own risk.

Edit: updated the URL for the Windows 2000 Post-SP4 Updates for HFSLIP page.

???

:blink:

Oh, yes, you're right...

So, why in my previously slipstreamed win2k this file was older? mmhh, I'll investigate this...

932590 - This hotfix was not released for 2000. However, MDGx produced an unoffical 932590 installer for 2000 - did you use that?

To be honest, I really can't remember neither how nor where I got all these files. Of course MDGx was not my source, since I'm after italian hotfixes. I didn't even know that was unofficial.

Having said this, I call your attention over KB838751, an official exe which provides Msvcrt.dll ver 6.1.9847.0

888111 - Will add this, although I am not sure myself whether or not portcls.sys 5.0.2195.6906 and sysaudio.sys 5.0.2195.6906 are fully backwards-compatible with non-High Definition audio devices. I'll add a note. Can anyone add anything here?

If this is a package with strong hardware dependence, then you should apply it only after installing the OS, isn't it?

Ok, this is a funny joke by MS.

KB839228 should provide:

  • 5.0.2195.1569 Fips.sys
  • 5.0.2195.6883 Ipsec.sys
  • 5.0.2195.6882 Ipsecmon.exe
  • 5.0.2195.6824 Netdiag.exe
  • 5.0.2195.6882 Oakley.dll
  • 5.0.2195.6882 Polagent.dll
  • 5.0.2195.6882 Polstore.dll
  • 5.0.2195.6824 Rasman.dll
  • 5.0.2195.6872 Rasmans.dll
  • 5.0.2195.6824 Rastapi.dll

but OOOPS! :( someone forgot to include FIPS.SYS, RASMAN.DLL and, of course, RASTAPI.DLL. Funny, isn't it?

I just checked both ITA package and ENU package, so I assume the others are missing the same files.

Edit: about KB932590, if it appears on your windows2000 updates page, then I think it should have a different background, meaning it's unofficial.

KB839228 should provide:

...

It's not uncommon for MS to make mistake in their KB articles, and for them to diverge from the contents of their corresponding updates. Install 872955 as well as 839228 - it will provide you with those missing files.

Edit: about KB932590, if it appears on your windows2000 updates page, then I think it should have a different background, meaning it's unofficial.

It seems that 932590 was released by MS for Windows 2000, but later retracted - I've seen (a few) references to Windows2000-KB932590-x86-ENU.EXE in older posts here, and this update was uploaded to the Hotfix Share website by a well-known and trusted member of that site. So it seems I was wrong, but as with any file the source of which you're not 100% sure, use it at your own risk.

Regarding 888111: I've never had the need to use it, and I am not sure myself about any problems it might present if installed on unsupported hardware. In general, I agree with you. I've included it on the page, but I advise caution for the above reason. If anyone knows that the update can be safely applied to unsupported hardware, please say.

So, chances are that my Windows2000-KB932590-x86-ITA.EXE is genuine from MS!!! :w00t:

Mmhh, is there a way to check for this? Is digital signature enough?

If really it is from microsoft, it is quite rare. I think I can post it on a hosting site in order to make it available to as much users as possible.

This is true, it was released by microsoft as part of SP5, and now I remember how I got it. I will post the full procedure here.

Well, this hotfix needs more care, it won't slipstream!

I just checked it and it indeed provides Ntprint.dll ver 5.0.2195.6745, but still I can't find it into the new slipstreamed win2k install. Why?

Has it to be copied into some other folder than HF\ ?

I'm not sure. Have you tried putting it into HFSVCPACK_SW1\ ?

It will override newer files will older one this way.

Extract the Ntprint.dll 5.0.2195.6745 from the hotfix and replace it manually.

I know this because i tried it with these 2 hotfixes as well

WINDOWS2000-KB942831-X86-ENU.EXE has newer than any other

infocomm.dll 5.0.2195.7147

WINDOWS2000-KB816868-X86-ENU.EXE has newer than any other

wininet.dll 5.0.3900.6944

Thanks PROBLEMCHYLD. So brutus1234, try extracting Ntprint.dll, putting it into the REPLACE folder, and renaming it Ntprint.dl_ (yep, replace the last L with an underscore, so that it looks like a compressed system file).

WINDOWS2000-KB942831-X86-ENU.EXE has newer than any other

infocomm.dll 5.0.2195.7147

WINDOWS2000-KB816868-X86-ENU.EXE has newer than any other

wininet.dll 5.0.3900.6944

I informed WildBill about infocomm.dll from his 2290570. It seems that his patch was indeed based on an older file. I used Mitec Explorer to look at the PE Header timestamps:

942831 - PE (header) Timestamp: 10/01/2008

2290570 (WildBill's) - PE (header) Timestamp: 20/06/2003

About wininet.dll, you're talking about the version in 816868 being later than the version in the last IE5 Cumulative Update - 982381 - only (the infocomm.dll version number in 982381 for IE6 has a later version than 816868). But when using Mitec Explorer, I found:

816868

wininet.dll 5.0.3900.6944

982381 (LAST IE5x CU)

wininet.dll 5.0.3888.1400

Date (from PE Header): 14/04/2010

So we have a discrepancy - 816868 was released in 2004, but its infocomm.dll has a later version number than the much newer infocomm.dll from 982381, released in 2010. Personally I take it that 982381 has the latest version, even though it may be missing some fix that is present in 816868 (who knows) .
