tomasz86 Posted July 7, 2011 Posted July 7, 2011 (edited) This project has been discontinued. Please check the Unofficial SP 5.2 for Windows 2000 thread for more information. Update Rollup 2 for Windows 2000 SP4 is an unofficial rollup style package of updates. It is a cumulative update. It covers everything starting from the official Update Rollup 1 up to EOL (End-of-life) of Windows 2000 in July 2010. It can be installed in an existing Windows 2000 installation or slipstreamed (ex. using programs such as HFSLIP or nLite). Update Rollup 2 uses exactly the same format as any official Windows update released by Microsoft. Only official public updates are included in it. It means that neither official hotfixes (available by request) or unofficial hotfixes are not part of this rollup. Update Rollup 2 is based on Windows 2000 Service Pack 4 Updates page. Below you can find a full list of updates included in it. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Windows updates (93): KB838989 KB839228 KB891861-v2 (Update Rollup 1) KB892211 (Web Folders update, no longer offered by MS) KB893756 KB893803-v2 (Windows Installer 3.1) KB894395 KB896358 KB896423 KB899587 KB899589 KB899591 KB900725 KB901017 KB901214 KB905414 KB905749 KB908506 KB908531 KB913580 KB914388 KB917008 KB917537 KB918118 KB919521* KB920213 KB920670 KB920683 KB923191 KB923561 KB923810 KB923980 KB924270 KB924432 KB924667 KB925902 KB926121 (installed only in Windows 2000 Server) KB926247 KB926436 KB927891 KB928843 KB935839 KB938827 KB942831 KB943055 KB943485 KB950749 KB950974 KB951748-V2 KB952004 KB952954 KB953155 KB955069 KB955417 KB955759 KB956802 KB956844 KB958470 KB958644 KB959426 KB960225 KB960803 KB960859 KB961501 KB967715 KB969059 KB970238 KB970483 KB971032 KB971468 KB972270 KB973037 KB973507 KB973869 KB973904-v2 KB974318 KB974392 KB974571 KB974783 KB975254 KB975337 (GDI+ update) KB975713 KB977290 KB977914 KB978037 KB978601 KB978706 KB979309 KB979482 KB979559 KB980195 KB980218 KB980232 Internet Explorer / Outlook Express updates** (7): IE5.01sp4-KB938127-Windows2000sp4 IE5.01sp4-KB982381-Windows2000sp4 IE6.0sp1-KB905495 IE6.0sp1-KB958869 IE6.0sp1-KB982381 OE5.5sp2-KB978542 OE6.0sp1-KB978542 Script 5.1 / 5.6 updates (3): KB917344*** KB971961 KB981350 DirectX7 updates**** (1): KB975560 MDAC 2.53 updates (1): KB927779 WMP 6.4 updates (5): KB911564 KB925398-v2 KB954600 KB974112 KB977816 WMS 4.1 updates (2): KB952068 KB980858 * Fixes an issue with abnormal CPU temperature when using dual-core or hyper-threading processor, officialy available only as a KB article. ** The updates are installed accordingly to the IE/OE version which is used, i.e. IE5 updates when IE5 is present, IE6 updates when IE6 is used or slipstreamed. Everything is done automatically. *** This update will not be installed/slipstreamed if you decide to use a newer version of Windows Script (5.6 or 5.7). **** This update will be ignored if you use a newer version of DirectX (8.1 or 9). ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If you decide to install or slipstream Update Rollup 2 you should not use any of the updates listed above as UR2 already covers all of them. Two updates (KB976323 & KB979683) were omitted intentionally as they seem to be buggy. In case of Remote Desktop Client update (KB958470), only registry entries are added to fix a security hole related to it. If you happen to actually use MS Remote Desktop, feel free to install KB958470 separately. Two Windows 2000 Server only updates are not included in this rollup - KB961063, KB969883. If you use Windows 2000 Server you should install/slipstream them together with the Update Rollup 2. If slipstreaming with HFSLIP you MUST NOT use Update Rollup 1 and Update Rollup 2 at the same time. Only one of them should be present in the HF folder so if you decide to use UR2 then you must remove UR1 from it (UR1 is included in UR2). I recommend using the newest beta of HFSLIP (available at Mim0's site). If you happen to use FDV fileset and slipstream IE6, using the newest beta of HFSLIP is required. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is how installation process in a running system looks like: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I want to thank everyone who helped me create this package. There are too many people to list here but you know who you are For support or bug report related with Update Rollup 2 please write in this topic or send me a message here. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Automatic Updates are turned OFF by default. Don't turn them ON if you want to avoid issues! Edited September 14, 2019 by tomasz86

bphlpt Posted July 7, 2011 Posted July 7, 2011 Just to be totally clear - This Update Rollup 2 does NOT include Update Rollup 1??I got that impression from:If slipstreaming with HFSLIP you MUST NOT use Update Rollup 1 and Update Rollup 2 at the same time. Only one of them should be present in the HF folder.So to have the basis of a fully up to date Win2K you need to take Win2K, integrate SP4, then slip Update Rollup 1 in one pass, then Update Rollup 2? If this is true, is there any chance of combining the two in a future release, or would that be of any benefit? If I misunderstood, you might want to clarify a bit in the instructions that Update Rollup 1 has been replaced so is no longer required.Also, it might be helpful to show how to do a complete Win2K install, with commonly used apps and all. Maybe partner up with Kurt_Aust, or use his guide as a template/model? http://www.msfn.org/board/topic/97047-up-to-date-windows-2000-install-media-creation-guide/ The comparison between the two approaches might be interesting.Cheers and Regards
tomasz86 Posted July 7, 2011 Author Posted July 7, 2011 UR1 is included I fixed the description. If using HFSLIP it should go like this -> SP4 (if not already slipstreamed), UR2, other updates (WMP, DX9, newer Script, MDAC, etc.).As for Kurt_Aust's guide, I know it but it's much more comprehensive than my work now. At the moment I'm concentrated on MS-style updates / update rollups while Kurt includes everything in his guide - from updates to applications. I haven't really thought about including non-MS applications in my projects... yet I'll have to think more about it.Still UR2.0 is going to include only official updates. There will an upgraded version later on - I want to add a MDAC 2.53 update and WMP6.4 security updates. UR2.1 will include more things but it's still in the planning stage now.
blackwingcat Posted July 8, 2011 Posted July 8, 2011 I created Japanese version Rollup v2.You can download here.DOWNLOADWindows2000-KB891861-UR2-x86-ENU.exe 49.06MB (English version)Windows2000-KB891861-UR2-x86-PLK.exe 47.26MB (Polish version)Windows2000-KB891861-UR2-x86-ITA.exe 47.21MB (Italian version)
tomasz86 Posted July 8, 2011 Author Posted July 8, 2011 (edited) Just to make everything clear - BlackWingCat's Japanese Rollup has no connection with my Update Rollup 2. It's much more comprehensive, apart from MS updates includes also many other components, and CANNOT be slipstreamed. Edited July 8, 2011 by tomasz86
tomasz86 Posted July 9, 2011 Author Posted July 9, 2011 Just one information - BITS 2.0 is not installed by this Rollup. Other Windows Update related updates are also not installed. If you still want to use WU you should install them manually.
bphlpt Posted July 9, 2011 Posted July 9, 2011 Since Win2K is past end of life, the only value for WU/MU is for the other MS products such as Office, correct? Win2K is no longer examined or updates offered, or am I wrong?Cheers and Regards
tomasz86 Posted July 9, 2011 Author Posted July 9, 2011 (edited) Yes and no WMP9, MDAC2.8, .NET Framework etc. are not included in UR2 so if you install WMP9 after UR2, the updates for it will be shown in WU. But generally speaking you're right. No new (released after July 2010) updates appear in WU, even for those system components that are still getting new updates (ex. .NET Framework). If you install newer .NET updates, you should turn WU off as it will still ask for the older, replaced ones. The same case is with the unofficial W2k updates.That's why I didn't include any WU related updates in UR2 - WU doesn't have any real use today.EDITThis is how WU should look like after installing UR2-v2 (WMP9, DX9, newer >2.53 MDAC not installed)Only 5 updates are offered to download.KB908531 - not recommended (Verclsid.exe), see bristols for detailsKB944338, KB971961, KB981350 - Script 5.6 updates, it's because I installed IE6 with Script 5.6 before UR2 (UR2 installs only a Script 5.1 update)KB979683 - kernel update, buggy (check first post)UR2-v2 is being tested at this moment. I added WMP6.4 security updates, MDAC2.53 SP3 and a GDI+ update. Edited July 9, 2011 by tomasz86
bphlpt Posted July 10, 2011 Posted July 10, 2011 Well I know that any users that are not as familiar with things to the extent that you are would prefer that after installing UR2 or UR2-v2 if they go to WU/MU that the only updates that show up are the ones that should be truly applied. I know that anyone that is choosing to use Win2K at this point should be willing to educate themselves appropriately, but is there anything you could do to hide updates that you feel should not be applied when UR2 or UR2-v2 is applied, or do you think that would not be a good idea? Or did I misunderstand what you posted? Just a thought.Cheers and Regards
tomasz86 Posted July 10, 2011 Author Posted July 10, 2011 This a really good idea. I haven't thought about it There are several ways to do it but the easiest one is to add catalog files (*.CAT) from these updates to UR2 which will make WU not ask about them.
tomasz86 Posted July 10, 2011 Author Posted July 10, 2011 (edited) Done but it was much more difficult than I thought it would be. Only adding the .CAT files didn't work because WU apparently checks file versions too. I had to do some work and change file versions manually in order to prevent WU from asking for KB979683. Before doing so I checked KB979683 once more - and got a blue screen after reboot. So no KB979683 in UR2. In case of 908531 I had to add the file Verclsid.exe to the Rollup but didn't add the related registry entries. By doing so it's just a dummy file - it's not used by the system but is still present in %systemroot%\system32 folder. WU doesn't ask for 908531 anymore.EDITAt the end, I think I'll have to make UR2 disable WU :/ something doesn't seem to work properly. Edited July 13, 2011 by tomasz86
FireFox276 Posted July 13, 2011 Posted July 13, 2011 (edited) I currently use Windows 2000 SP4 Rollout 1. Can this just be applied right away? Nothing else needs doing? Note that since I put 2000 on, it has not connected to the Internet so it's not got any updates since Rollout 1.Reason I'm asking is because I saw the "Let's keep Windows 2000 alive" topic and saw things like Service Pack 5 etc. Edited July 13, 2011 by FireFox276
tomasz86 Posted July 13, 2011 Author Posted July 13, 2011 Yes, Update Rollup 2 can be installed over UR1 without any problems BUTI strongly recommend waiting just one more day for UR2-v2 as it's almost ready and includes several important fixes to the current version.
