I have to do a Facory restore on my Home XP and I need to
know if I can get back all the Microsoft & Windows
updates since Feb.2002. I need to know ASAP. Why is it so
hard to just contact Microsoft?
Thanks ahead for any help.
 
Jan;
The updates you have installed on your computer are not in a usable or
saveable form.
You will need to download them again after you restore Windows XP.

You can download them from the Windows Update Catalog and burn to CD
to prevent having to download them in the future:

If you perform a Factory Restore, all updates will be removed.
You'll have to visit the Windows Update website and download them
once again.
