Is is possible to download all of the common Windows updates for XP &
98 to a CD-R? If so, how?

I know people that need these, but they're stuck with a modem for
downloading the files. With over 50 megs worth of patches for XP for
example, that's almost an impossible task without high speed Internet
access.

I'd like them to scan their computer using Windows Update, make note
of which files they need, and then I can burn a CD-R for them with the
needed files. It would also be a good thing to have around in case
of a hard drive crash.

If you know how to do this, send me an e-mail to let
me know you've followed up this message: (e-mail address removed)

Thanks..
 
Go to Windows Update and select Windows Catalog to select and download the
installation files you desire to burn to the CD
