I just zipped the 15 folders in that download in addition to I386 and it is about 75mb. I'll be happy as hell to send that along with a current issue of FDISK is you so desire. All of these files are compressed with the two characters and an underline for an extension. ==================================== If you drink, don't drive. Don't even putt.

They only give us 107 a DAY up and down. Go over that by to much and very often and you are throttled for a week. They just started that this past summer.. didn't let anyone know.. do you know how many times I was throttled until I figured that out? Hell I can go over my quota just on email alone in one day.

Let me check out the list of files and maybe I can just send you the setup files. It took 27 minutes to download via DSL. My plan now is to slipstream it with XP so it's all on one CD.

I'm thinking that maybe I had it installed when I bought the computer and didn't actually download it after all... Here is what I *DO* find on my system... C:\WINDOWS\ServicePackFiles\i386 and there are 386 meg worth of files in there (perhaps and unpacked version of the 266mb listed in your file info below) Could this be SP2, and if so, how do I go about transferring it from one computer to the other... (and before you show yer smart side), I *know* I could just copy the files in that folder on to a CD, but me thinks there is more to it than that... cause nuthin' ain't never that easy...

My everyday (online) computer has SP2, which I downloaded and installed. Is there a place on my computer where the SP2 download is located, so that I can transfer it to disk and put it on the other computer? Confused? Yeah, me too. Tee :)
