    Install windows xp updated on a pc with no sminternet access ?

    I want to apply the windows updates to WindowsXP on my desktop machine at home, but I have no access to the internet at home.

    Any thoughts ?

    There's a corporate Windows update site you can get the patches from, and a qcchain.exe utility to install multiple patches with one reboot instead of multiple reboots.

    I have books for sale: "MCSD in a Nutshell" and "VB Distributed Exam Cram" - PM me for details. Will also trade for a decent ATX Pentium 2 MB/CPU/RAM combo.

    Thanks for that.
    What I've actually done is run the windowsupdate on this XP laptop, take note of what I would want to download, and then just goto download.microsoft.com and grab them manually
