Hi, my virtual pc with win2k works fine accessing the net etc, Apart from when i want to download the updates from windowsupdate.
it simply wont work.
any idea why? is this a known issue?
I thought it was just me
I recently did a massive update to Win2K running in VPC. The first thing the Windows updater did was to ask to update the 'updater application' which I allowed. BUT then it somehow hosed things so badly that it couldn't update anything.else -- DUH.
So I dropped back and punted. I reloaded a recent backup of the VPC drive image and started over. This time it got the first 'updater application' updated correctly and I was able to proceed to apply over two years of windows updates. BTW it took nearly all day (on and off) and a maddening number of Windows restarts followed by even longer lists of things to update than before the last update. The whole process really made me appreciate the OS X Software Update feature
