Get The Drivers You Need



Save Your New Downloads

Since some people are still using modems and since MS is issuing patches right and left for XP wouldn't it be nice if after you downloaded all the updates you could save them? Well, you can and MS has provided a way for you to do it.

Here's How:

1. Logon to Windows Update

2. Choose Windows Update Catalogue (left hand pane)

3. Choose Find updates for Microsoft Windows operating systems (right hand pane)

4. Choose your version and language then Search

5. Choose one the following:

1. Critical Updates and Service Packs

2. Service Packs and Recommended Downloads

3. Multi-Language Features (0)

4. Once chosen simply click on what you want to download and then back at the top click Review Download Basket

5. You are taken to the next page where at the top you can specify where the downloads are to be saved.

6. Click Download now.

Each patch will make a directory under the root of the folder you saved them to. Once finished you need to go to where you saved the file (s) to and then simply install all your patches.

Read-me's are available in each patch section so you know which one you are installing.
