re: XP updates Monday, December 3, 2001 at 2:59 pm Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Craigey (5 messages posted) Try downloading the updates manually, using getright etc. The easiest way to find the name and link to the file you were downloading that caused a problem. Is to go into your WINNT / WINDOWS folder and find the file called WINDOWS UPDATES.LOG. open the file and you should find the internet location of all files that windows update has downloaded. It also tells you where the files have been downloaded to, but i can never seem to find them in the WUtemp folder!! Anyway just copy & paste the link to the file into getright or even straight into your browser. Download the file to a directory of your choice and run the file when it's completed. Hopefully that will sort it out.
