tarquel Posted August 31, 2004 Share Posted August 31, 2004 xiaodown:Just a comment on something earlier you said....Hrm, now XPCREATE gets to the point where it's downloading:-- 8:29:57 -- Downloading: SVC-X2M\mm20enu.EXE -- 8:57:23 -- Downloading: SVC-X2M\mm20enu.EXEIf you have a local copy of this file already somewhere (make sure its the exact one) copy it to the SVC-X2m directory and make it read only. Then the downloader wont be able to delete it - you may get a 'access denied' message appear but it should work still ahhhh...it seems they've released 2.1 and may have changed the location of the files. Take a look at:http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloa...es/default.mspxI cant seem to find a direct download link for mm20enu.exe anymore hmmm....doesnt even seem to be listed in the windows update catalog lists anymore (searched the Windows RTM, SP1 and SP2 lists). Guess they expect you to update to SP2 for this now - v2.1 inc in SP2)bah!Regards,N. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenMachine Posted August 31, 2004 Share Posted August 31, 2004 Hrm, now XPCREATE gets to the point where it's downloading:-- 8:29:57 -- Downloading: SVC-X2M\mm20enu.EXE -- 8:57:23 -- Downloading: SVC-X2M\mm20enu.EXE ...Something wrong here ... Please post your LOGFILES.CAB for me to take a looksee. If that has not yet been created XPCREATE.LOG.Also, though I've not used it, I was under the impression that the SUS server DOES work like your own local Windows Update Server, though it is in the process of being re-evaluated/rewritten.Please post the logs so I can get a grasp on what is going on.Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tarquel Posted August 31, 2004 Share Posted August 31, 2004 @GM:hehe I've edited the other post now - yep, you're impression is quite correct from the instructions I've been told by our county IT helpdesk on advising me about it.I've edited the other post and the one before you one here (trying to keep one step ahead of you - impossible I know hehe ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xiaodown Posted August 31, 2004 Share Posted August 31, 2004 @GM:The file doesn't appear twice in the log, that's two different entries from two different attempts at this process. I opened the log files while it was waiting to download, and that's the step at the very bottom.The half hour between accounts for the time that I let it sit, and then I removed the files and started over from scratch.Gotta go to work, will work on this more later tonite.~Will Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenMachine Posted September 2, 2004 Share Posted September 2, 2004 Any updates on this? Could be something as simple as a proxy or firewall issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tarquel Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 hehe I think I'll quote myself:ahhhh...it seems they've released 2.1 and may have changed the location of the files. Take a look at:http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloa...es/default.mspxI cant seem to find a direct download link for mm20enu.exe anymorePlease prove me wrong Then again, they may have put the file avalible again - dont see why not if you cant even download mm20enu.exeRegards,Nath Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenMachine Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 **** ... Right you are: they have removed the links, and now MM2.1 is "only" available via Windows Update. If anyone finds the direct download link before me (from Microsoft), please feel free to post it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tarquel Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 *smugly grins*Told ya On the 31st Aug, I couldnt find it *anywhere* (and couldnt find a link for 2.1 either) - Windows Update, download center, nowhere (except 3rd party sites)Whats the link for 2.1? I take it that you've got it!?Its included in SP2 tho right?Regards,Nath Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenMachine Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 Actually, I don't have the link yet. It is supposed to be available from Windows Update. One would have to monitor the network to see where that file is coming from. So ... if someone finds it, please share! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bilou_Gateux Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 Windows Movie Maker 2.1 Download information page by M$Download Movie Maker 2.1 for Windows XPMovie Maker 2.1 is available for download with Windows XP Service Pack 2 (SP2). You can download SP2 and all future critical updates automatically by turning on the Automatic Updates feature in Windows XP. You can also download SP2 and Movie Maker 2.1 from Windows Update. If you cannot use Automatic Updates or download SP2 via Windows Update, order a CD. Updated: August 25, 2004 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenMachine Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 Thanks, Bilou. I saw that article, and then looked on Windows Update, as suggested. No luck there, or even in Windows Update Catalog. Strange ... Part of the reason I only support the latest updates: in this case SP2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virindi Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 I don't have an available XP SP1 box (mine are all at SP2).If someone has MM 2.1 listed in their available updates list, please send me a quick email before downloading / installing it - I'll send you the address of my proxy so I can catch the address of MM 2.1 in the logs. -J Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenMachine Posted September 4, 2004 Share Posted September 4, 2004 I looked at one pre-SP2 box, and it wasn't showing the MM 2.1 download ... Anyone else see it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DisabledTrucker Posted September 12, 2004 Share Posted September 12, 2004 Windows Movie Maker 2.1Says, Microsoft Windows Movie Maker 2.1 is included in Windows XP Service Pack 2 (SP2). This means that when you update to SP2, you'll get new security fixes, increased compatibility with other video and audio programs, and improved stability for Windows Movie Maker.then a look here: Windows Movie Maker 2.1 Download says, System RequirementsHere's what you'll need to use Windows Movie Maker 2.1.Component Requirement Recommendation ...Operating System SP2 for Windows XP Home Edition or Windows XP Professional *Edited for content.*Therefore one can only assume that it's not part of a download but an inclusion in Windows XP SP2, which is the only way it can be obtained at this time.

GreenMachine Posted September 16, 2004 Share Posted September 16, 2004 I do believe that you are correct, DisabledTrucker. Due to issues like these, I am only going to be "supporting" the latest updates, e.g. XP SP2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
