straffin Posted February 8, 2008 Posted February 8, 2008 Should I install every update under Windows XP Service Pack 2?Well, if you have MS Windows XP Pro SP2 along with IE7, WMP11, Windows Live Messenger 8.1 installed, then, if you install all of the (currently 90) patches listed in the first post in this thread, your computer will be fully patched according to what Microsoft serves out in Windows Updates. If you do not have all of the add-ons listed (IE7, WMP11, Windows Live Messenger 8.1), you may need other patches as well.Is this for building an automated install CD or patching an existing installation? If the later (which it kinda sounds like), you'll likely want to use Windows Update instead.

Octopuss Posted March 18, 2008 Posted March 18, 2008 Not that big deal if this thread died with SP3 coming out in a month...
thundernetbr Posted March 18, 2008 Posted March 18, 2008 Not that big deal if this thread died with SP3 coming out in a month...Actually, it IS a big deal, because this thread covers not only the XP hotfixes and updates, but ALSO 2k and 2003. Maybe the best way would be to open a new thread, covering only the post-SP3 XP hotfixes from now on. And would be nice to have another thread (in the right place here at MSFN) covering Office hotifxes.Just a suggestion.--ThundernetBR
