AutoPatcher XP May 2005

[Man_Nxt_Dr]

This is an indication that people need to download via BitTorrent rather than overusing the mirrors. Learn it, use it, and benefit everyone! If you had provided that file over the BitTorrent network, you wouldn't have used as much bandwidth, you'd have encouraged more to use BitTorrent, and your server could go up and down without affecting the reliability of the download. Now I suppose we have dead links to clean up.

I need a connection at home that can upload 250GB in 4 days. :cool:

Which version of the autopatcher makes sense for me to use when I have an XPSP2 Pro that is not bootable and I want it to be bootabl as well as slipstreamed up till may of this year. there are 3 filechoices available to download, and it is not clear to me what is missing in my XPSp2 Pro so I can decide which version,

the full

the update

or the middle size one.

Last minute thinking, since I slipstreamed with the full update of May I could just do the June Minimal Update download, right? and slipstream my May slipstreamed version on my Hard drive...which I plan to make bootable and switch from win2kPro SP4 to This Xp Version.

Ohh another question what can I use to make XP look like win2k on my desktop and have access to windows explorer, possibly opening up after quit to the same place I left off rather than to a default place every time I reopen

yep, you can use the xp june update version to update the may release

not sure when itll come out, ive only just released the 2K version and we might wait a few days to easy the load off the servers.

to make XP look like 2K, just turn off the XP theme - right click the desktop, select the classic theme in the drop menu, and apply.

Quoting myself from the first post:

Torrents

BitTorrent is a P2P system that makes transfering large files (or groups of files) amongst a large group of people easy, fast and efficient. The BitTorrent network is impressive mostly for the speed and reliability with which you get files that have been recently released. As long as a .torrent file has enough people sharing then you can be assured that it will start quickly and maintain a good download speed.

Always remember to leave your BitTorrent client open to help distribute the files!

In order to download AutoPatcher via the BitTorrent network, you'll need a "Torrent Client", such as ABC, G3 Torrent, Azureus etc. Grab the .torrent files from the links found in the first post.

The June release is almost ready for release, so hold your fire!

1) Get the BitTorrent protocol manager: http://www.bittorrent.com/

2) A crude client is included that works just fine. If you want something more, there are many clients and I use http://azureus.sourceforge.net/ .

3) Download the .torrent file of something you are interested in. The .torrent file is a small file that has all the information that a Torrent client needs to go out and get the real files. Torrents for APXP are listed in the first message of this thread. If the .torrent doesn't send itself to your client, put it there manually and the file will begin to download.

Wait for me to get the June torrents up though, I havn't had a chance to do so yet!

June release is already mirrored...

I guess it'll have to wait until July's release

As M2Ys4U said, it will only be included in July's version, because Microsoft only released it after AutoPatcher had been uploaded to servers (it was released after Microsoft "patching day").

Thank you...I will try it.
