Very strange, it doesn't exist in French (only in a few language)...

[Alanoll]

well, English, German, and Japanese are typically the first ones to be released. Maybe the french is still coming.

Does all of this apply to Win2k as well? If not where could you point me so I can slipstream and/or automate the hotfixes, ie6, mp7, etc into my win2k installation...thanks

2KCREATE?

(Click below)

[Alanoll]

the listed howfixes here are specific to XP (atleas tmost, but not all).

The instructions on the unattended.msfn.org website apply to XP/2003 but still works in 2K.

I would recommend XPCreate for ease. greenmachine.msfnhosting.com

@fernandodb: Add the following to SVCPACK.INF (WITH quotes):

"Q832483.exe /C:""dahotfix.exe /q /n"" /q:a"

And make sure Q832483.exe is in the SVCPACK directory.

[fernandodb]

Shucks... that was fast RaveRod... I posted my original message and decided to edit it and you already gave me a reply..

Thanks a million, will try that now to see if it works.

[Denney]

heh. no probs.

[fernandodb]

RaveRod, you didn't by any chance mean that the Q832483.exe file should be in the UPDATE directory instead of the SVCPACK directory hey? I got it to work using the method you told me, but only by putting the above mentioned file in the i386/Update directory.

Anyway, thanks for you help.

Fernando.

1 new Windows XP Update today: Q840374 - Vulnerability in Help and Support Center Could Allow Remote Code Execution. You may also want to re-download Q837001, as it's been re-released.

Here's the latest copy of my svcpack.inf file for anyone interested. You may have noticed I changed Q to KB. This makes no difference, but all patches released lately are in 'KB' but still adheres to the 8 character limit
