Greetings, After a battle with SATA and RAID 0, which I lost! I must
reformat and reinstall Win-XP pro. Is it possible to save all the MS
patches, plugs, and updates for XP so I don't have to download the lot
after a fresh Install? At 28K dial up it takes forever to get XP up to
date.
Thanks in advance

Hi Mike,

Only if you donwloaded them in stand-alone form in the first place. To do
this, use the catalog option at the Windows Update site. If it doesn't show,
add it using the personalize section.
