Hello all,
I am searching for information on where the files for the windows update are stored. I have dial-up connection and I need to reformat and dont want to spend 2 days worth of downloading programs like IE 6 and windows media player 7.1 (along with all the critical updates and device drivers ) I am running windows 2k sp2 with all current updates. I believe they are in the System 32 folder but can I save them to disk and then restore them after the format? I am sure there is more to it than that so any help will be appreciated (step by step is always great)
Any additional info about my system or current setup will be supplied on request.
Thanks in advance,
Millphil
