Yea i took a look at the express install

"Clicking the Windows XP SP1a link below will take you to the Microsoft Windows Update Web site to download the Express Installation of SP1a. Windows Update will scan your computer and present you with a list of updates available for download. If you do not already have SP1 installed on your computer, it will be listed as one of the updates under Critical Updates and Service Packs"

But i dont want it to do this i need the full file because he has no net connection.

"Typical download size and time for Express installation:

Size: 30 MB | 1.25 hours via 56K dial-up | 3 minutes via T1

• The download requires an Internet connection.

• Anti-virus software programs may interfere with the installation. Please disable anti-virus software while installing Windows XP SP1a. "

Many thanks

If you look at frontpage (left side bar) you will find links to almost everything you need.

You surely need to see here if you are concerned about being updated with the latest patches and updates to WinXP - it gives you a retainable copy (no need to re-download all these again for every machine):

The above comes into view only *AFTER* SP1 (or higher) is installed; it is not a substitute for the Service Pack itself.
