HOw to INTERGRATE ALL Hotfixes and patches for SP2


Recommended Posts

Hi

Okey first of all i have searched the forum and i have googled some...

But i just get a headace from all different methodes.

Here goes:

I have The Swedish version of Windows XP SP2 and i have now downloaded around 40 or 50 Hotfixes, Small tools (as CalcPlus and Mal. File Remover and such)

and Ms Dot NET and so on.

So i can´t use RyanVM´s Pack cuz thats in English

And the thing is i want to INTERGRATE as many of the fixex and tools as possible

but i dont know witch ones can use the /INTERGRATE switch and witch can´t

i also dont know how to intergrate thoose that dont use that switch.

I tried to use nLite but i am now unsure if all of the files i tried to intergrate actually work

Anyone understand my problem? care to help me out?

thanx

Start those hotfixes with the /? parameter. It will give you the switches it supports.

And as far as I know all post-SP2 hotfixes by Microsoft support the /integrate option.

Integrating tools is something different altogether. It depends on the tools if and how these can best be integrated. You can integrate them into your pack as RyanVM did, or use the $OEM$ method, which I think is easier to learn.

I tried to use nLite but i am now unsure if all of the files i tried to intergrate actually work
After install check the version number of the DLL's that got updated bij the hotfixes and compare those with the Microsoft knowledge base articles related to those hotfixes.

Does this answer your questions?

Hey

I know you've said that you want to /integrate them, but if it causes you that many trouble why dont you use the svpack.inf method? Its very easy and the files must use the same amount of space whether you use the first or the second method?

I come to think of something else of great importance!

In what order do i need to apply the hotfixes...

Take Dot NET for instance.

I do need to have v1.1 intergrated before i apply the service pack for it right?

Are there any other fixes like this that needs special install order????

EDIT: i am now seriously thinking of using the svcpack.inf option

but can i install .NET from here and other tools?

or can i ONLY apply hotfixes from here?
