Update interrupted - all data lost?

[Juergen Witt]

Hi all!

I tried to install service patches, which I wanted to
download via Modem, but my System hung up the connection
after 1 hour.

Bad luck... While the necessary data left was already
down to 22.000 KB, when I tried to download again, MS
told me, that there were 56.000 KB left to download.

Is there any possibility to access all the data that were
already downloaded to my computer? I don't want to wait
for such a long time again for the modem connection is
extremely slow.

Is it possible to download updates on another PC than my
own? On the university, there are WinME-PCs with DSL-
Speed-Internet-access. I might save the downloaded
patches to my memory stick and innstall it at home. Is
that possible?

Thanks in advance

Juergen

Juergen;
You can use the Windows Update Catalog to download the updates and
then burn them to CD:
