ygdrazil Posted November 24, 2006 Posted November 24, 2006 I work in a bush hospital in Africa, and the bandwidth here is not good. In the IT department we used to have a nice cd that contain all updates for windows until august this year (except MGA updates). The cd was mad by a small program that downloaded all the updates and then created a ISO file. This we burned to a cd and inserted into newly installed pc's and opend a menu.bat file. This gave us a noice cmd menu where you could choose to install SP2, updates after SP2 or brows cd. (Choosing was don by numbers) This also prompted if you wanted to update Java, install Acrobat reader or disable MSN.My problem is that someone have lost the CD and the program/ISO is nowhere to be found either. I have trye some hard googeling but nothing came up that was as sutible for my needs as this program.Does anyone know of this program? Can someone then ples give me a link?Kind RegardsTore
nitroshift Posted November 24, 2006 Posted November 24, 2006 Use jcarle's utility found here: http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=80713
ygdrazil Posted November 24, 2006 Author Posted November 24, 2006 Yes, this I have found, but this other program downlaoded updates, and the mad a ISO you could burn to cd and then install all in one...I what a program that creates a update cd, so that you insert cd start a program that innstalles all updates.Tore
vinodh Posted November 24, 2006 Posted November 24, 2006 Go to www.autopatcher.com. You can download it, in a full post-SP2 pack that will install all updates.You can also download monthly updates that reuire at least 1 previous full pack.You can also download small monthly packs that are stand alone. [ all for free]And finally, you can order a CD/DVD that contains the above. [between $7 and $10]
ygdrazil Posted November 27, 2006 Author Posted November 27, 2006 Autopacher seems fine, but it is not what i was looking for, and they do not deliver in Tanzania where i Live....This is a small app that downloads updates from MS and creates a ISO. When you insert this you open the cd on the out of date PC and click menu.bat and then get option to ionstall SP", update post SP" or brows cd.It also have a funny speech thing that talks when the menu is loaded (not important but might make someone remember it)Tore
LLXX Posted November 27, 2006 Posted November 27, 2006 If it was a custom program that one of you wrote for the purpose then I doubt you'll find it on the Internet...
ygdrazil Posted November 28, 2006 Author Posted November 28, 2006 If it was a custom program that one of you wrote for the purpose then I doubt you'll find it on the Internet...eeehhh... just don't know what to say there.... ofcause not The program was downloaded after a small article in digg/msfn or somthing.... but i just can't find it...
ygdrazil Posted March 20, 2007 Author Posted March 20, 2007 Bus as it seems a lot of download was going to happen. We installed WSUS and all is now good... case closed
nmX.Memnoch Posted March 20, 2007 Posted March 20, 2007 WSUS was a very good choice since it'll push the updates out for you instead of you having to go to every machine to update them manually.
