Mark!!
Note that the FIRST update to install, however you elect to do it, is the
290700 hotfix for System Restore.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290700
otherwise System Restore won't work for the rest of the updates - and it
really is essential!

Hmmm - interesting!
playing around with Google, I can find the downloads using the search string

millennium hotfix "download available" site:microsoft.com

unfortunately, this produces a list of 687 downloads!

Ah! - a better search is
millennium hotfix retired site:microsoft.com

this produces only 270 results! g ... and there are still a few where the
advice is to call MS for the hotfix - which isn't likely to get a good
response from the Support people nowadays! ("ME?? wassat? Win2K?? - which SP
is installed?")
Introducing another term reduces the hit rate down to 152...

millennium hotfix retired kbhotfixserver site:microsoft.com

This still introduces a few mis-hits, but it should at least be
manageable? - how many are missing, I have no idea!

I may see about putting a list up on my site - adding it to my to-do list!
g - with direct links to the relevant files.
The problem there will be to separate out the essentials from the
unneeded/irrelevant (how many ME boxes have 1394 ports with problems?).
If anyone has a definitive list, I'd be interested. (I'll ping Gary and see
what he can let me have). I'm not sure what the legal situation would be
about hosting the files themselves on the site - even if I weren't worried
about the security and cock-up aspects.

If any of that helps, then great

There is/was a Win98 MVP - Gary Terhune (sometimes visits the WinMe group,
but not seen him for quite a while) - who has produced a copy of the
Security Updates CD (for a very modest fee) and wrote in March of 2008 :-

My Updates CDs are now ready to go. One is a copy of the Security Updates
CD from 02/04, the other contains everything since, with a few minor
exceptions. No IE 5 or 5.5, only IE6 SP1. Good for Win98, 98SE and ME.

Anyone interested should email updates RemoveThis @grystmill.com

Might be worth a try? Others had (at the time) reported success.and
satisfaction.

Good luck

Thanks for the info.
But I want to download the "updates" from the website, not Windows
Updates.
I am reinstalling my friends WinME operating system but she has no
internet
connection. I want to download at my house and put on disc to take there.

Thanks

There is no such thing as a Service Pack for Windows Millennium Edition
(ME) - Updates are still available via Windows Updates (much to
everybody's
surprise) for the moment, but no new ones have been created since July
2006,
and no more will be available in the future.

OTOH, if you're talking about Windows 2000 (W2K), then you're in the
wrong
place

Hello,

I can not find download-able Windows ME Service Packs/Updates anywhere
on
the Microsoft website? Can you please tell me where they are located?

Thank you, Mark
