    How do I use a manual install to selectively install W2K updates to an older laptop. I ONLY want security updates. Windwos UPdate function times out.

    Thanks in advance for any guidance,

    Use Windows Update to check which updates you need. Take note of the KB######.

    Use either

    Windows Update Catalog to download as a batch to the local hard disk

    or

    Download Center to download one by one to the local hard disk.

    In both cases, make sure that you get the correct version (OS and SP).

    When all have been downloaded, install in sequence of KB######.
