I'm about to reformat my hard drive :eek:
I'm running XP Pro and have the disk to install SP2 - but I then still need to run all the updates since then :eek:
I seem to recall that I can download all the updates now and stuff them onto a CD, to save having to download after the reformat.
Can anyone help with how I do this, please?
