WIN2K SP1.....

[mykel]

Is there any way to download the whole program to my HD and not install it "yet"???
The reason I wanna do this is because I wanna be able to just run it if ever that I want to format my HD.. Plus I'm only on a 56K connection.. Any links or any way to get this file?? Thanks..

You need to download the network install progam. FYI: It's 87 MBs, I downloaded it on a 56k connection ... took over 4 hours. Hope you have plenty of time, and a download manager like Getright or Gozilla.

Actually I'm aware of the size of the file.. What I'm planning to do is to be able to save it on my hd instead of the program installing itself... http://www.sysopt.com/forum/frown.gif ... So I guess what I want is to get the file directly from a website or something.... Thanks a bunch...-
