NO NEED TO DOWNLOAD 98SE UPDATES

[chankya]

Dear Gape

as it is mentioned in http://exuberant.ms11.net/selist.html this project already contain patches so i don't need to update from microsoft's website for 98se updates

am i right

[Gape]

Yes.

I don't add IE, Media Player, DirectX and their updates into the SP, so if you use any of them, you should check WindowsUpdate after installing the SP.

Dear

THANKS A LOT FOR QUICK RESPONSE

LAST QUESTION

70 IS THE COMPLETE UPDATE FIND ON MS

OR THERE IS MORE UPDATE WHICH REQUIRE TO DOWNLOAD

IF ANY KINDLY TELL ME THE WEB ADDRESS

Chanakya,

The SP contains all critical updates for windows98se released till the date it was created, but not any updates for IE, windows media player, mdac etc. which you should update at www.windowsupdate.com

Anyway Gape should probably confirm on that.

The way I do it - install SP on a clean install of windows, and after that use windows update unless a newer SP contains a patch or tweak I cant apply manually Eagerly awaiting 2.0 final!

BTW, first post here, wanting to appreciate Gape's efforts :

Q.  but this updates not appears in system information like when we update it downloaded from ms network it shows all patch and update in sysinfo section softwares updates service pack win98se then displayes all updates and patch etc.

SP registers only necessary WindowsUpdate information. It doesn't register QFE information. So you can't see all installed updates on some tools.

Sorry, it's difficult to create a reliable QFE information with my installing method (single INF - single EXE for all updates).

I'm from Delhi, India. Anyways, this is getting offtopic as I really have nothing more to add about sysinfo here ... actually I never knew it listed updates. Maybe it lists updates downloaded from windows update, and not those externally installed?
