Windows XP SP2 updates and hotfixes

[Tomcat76]

General notes

The description of new updates is colored differently.

Updates that are only handled in a test release of HFSLIP are colored differently.

As of version 60129, you can let HFSLIP slipstream a Service Pack into the Windows source you provide in the SOURCE folder. Please read the instructions carefully.

For some components (should you wish to include these), the necessary files are marked.

LegitCheckControl.cab and the new DX9 gaming binaries cabs go in HFCABS; all other updates go in HF.

Note from TommyP

HFSLIP concentrates on critical updates and not optional ones reported by Windows Update.

This is really really nice Tomcat !!

Great work - it was nowhere close to this simple when I did this last year

My my, things have truly come a long way with HFSLIP

Edited May 16, 2006 by Outatouch

[Kiki Burgh]

just a quick question ...

would those with this yellow arrow icon be newly added updates?

thanks!

[Glowy]

The hotfixes with the arrow use WGA

[Kiki Burgh]

thanks much Glowy!Ü

would we have indicators here for new revisions/updates?

hi

about WindowsXP-KB885626-v2-x86-enu.exe (Systems running Intel Prescott C-0 without BIOS support can hang on SP2 installation)

it lays on critical Post SP1 hotfixes, but not in SP2 hotfixes

it is not right. with error on update.sys SP2 hangs on machines with celeron D C-0 steppings and old bioses, but on this machines also hangs installation of WinXPSP2 without this hotfix.

because KB885626 hotfix needed also in PostSP2 hotfixes

[Super-Magician]

I'm not Tomcat, but one thing:

KB885626 is not requested by Windows Update. It is not a critical or optional update.

Remember, this list is for updates listed on Windows Update, not all hotfixes released for XP. If it was, this list would be VERY hard for him to maintain.

Is this what you're mentioning, or am I wrong?

[monohouse]

this looks good, but it would look better if the critical updates for pre-sp1 (build 0) were also listed.

Edited May 16, 2006 by monohouse

[Tomcat76]

These lists are for HFSLIP and HFSLIP doesn't support XP Gold. I don't know about TommyP but I don't support service packs that are no longer supported by Microsoft. In the same vein, I'll stop updating my SP1a list and will stop adding "fixes" for SP1a hotfixes on November 14, 2006 (unless MS extend support for SP1a again).

[Camarade_Tux]

What is SP3's release date ?

If it is after SP1a support is discontinued ?

If so could you please keep your list up-to-date until SP3 is available ?

Thanks a lot.

[Super-Magician]

SP3 should be released in second half of 2007 (if Microsoft stops delaying it!).

That is, of course, after November 14, 2006.

[Tomcat76]

The number of post-SP1 hotfixes is already exceptionally large. Imagine what the list will look like in one and a half year. It's not so much adding of new hotfixes to the list that's going to take the most time, but rather verifying which hotfixes will have become obsolete.

[Tomcat76]

@Super-Magician: I removed your hotfix post as I finally got around to updating the list in the main post; it might've confused people reading this thread in a few months from now.

I've also removed the "taboo posts."

about WindowsXP-KB885626-v2-x86-enu.exe (Systems running Intel Prescott C-0 without BIOS support can hang on SP2 installation)

KB885626 is not requested by Windows Update. It is not a critical or optional update.

The thing is... When the SP2 system boots up and gets right up to Windows Update, there's no point anymore in listing it on Windows Update, is there?

So the question is... Does it really apply to SP2 when it's slipstreamed, and is "update.sys" updated by a later hotfix?

Edited May 19, 2006 by Tomcat76

[the_guy]

Tomcat:

885626 is a SP2 update, as it is an SP2 versioned file. It is also not replaced by a later hotfix.
