Procyon Posted March 7, 2005 Share Posted March 7, 2005 This is my 1st post and I'd like to begin by thanking you for sharing such a wonderful program as freeware. Windows Installer 3.0 isn't a critical or recommended update that I know of and isn't on GMs list but I would like to add it just to have the most current versions of everything on my 2000 installer disk. It looks like it should go in SVC-HF1. I welcome any feedback and I'm glad to be part of your forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenMachine Posted March 7, 2005 Share Posted March 7, 2005 Welcome, Procyon, to MSFN!Thank you for your kind words. A very eloquent way to make your first post!I have not yet tried to install that update, but I did take a look at the package, and what I see indicates that it should be fine in SVC-HF1. Give it a go, and post your results! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Procyon Posted March 8, 2005 Author Share Posted March 8, 2005 I'll try and post mid-week after seeing if we get any new hotfixes tomorrow. I read somewhere there were no new HFs but there will be a new or revised Mal. Software Removal Tool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreenMachine Posted March 8, 2005 Share Posted March 8, 2005 From what I can see, there are no new updates, as promised.And yes, the Malicious Removal Tool has been updated. You should be able to simply replace the old with the new. Of course, some may prefer to simply add the registry setting, as MRT should not be finding anything on a fresh installation ...

Procyon Posted March 11, 2005 Author Share Posted March 11, 2005 WI 3.0 appears to install fine on W2K Server. I put it in SVC-HF1. XPCreate renamed it MSI30_NET in the svcpack file and folder. I burned a disk and installed with it. Its listed in the Add/Remove programs list. Is there another way to verify? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will list the version. I am currently running 3.01.4000.1207, which is the RC for 3.1. It is placed in SVC-HF1 and works fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
