From: Bobbi on 10 May 2010 03:07 I have SP2. I haven't installed a bunch of windows updates going back 2 years, nor have I installed SP3 yet. (I know that July 13 is the deadline for SP3.) If I install SP3, will it include those old updates I'm missing? If not, should I install the old updates first and then SP3 or vice-versa? If I should install all the old updates first, does chronological order matter? If I install some newer updates first and later some older ones, might I wipe out some corrections that the newer patches make? Bobbi
From: DL on 10 May 2010 04:10 Run MSUpdate and see what critical updates are offered, you may need to repeat the process several times "Bobbi" <bobbi(a)example.invalid> wrote in message news:uCdOr9A8KHA.5464(a)TK2MSFTNGP05.phx.gbl... > I have SP2. > > I haven't installed a bunch of windows updates going back 2 years, nor > have I installed SP3 yet.

From: occam on 10 May 2010 04:20 SP3 first. (It already includes a lot of updates to SP2 up to the release point of SP3). Then, run Windows update (several times) until you have everything since SP3.

From: Bobbi on 10 May 2010 10:03 Thanks, occam. Do you know when SP3 was released? "occam" <occam(a)127.0.0.1> wrote in message news:uSE7ZmB8KHA.5848(a)TK2MSFTNGP06.phx.gbl... > SP3 first.
