Ah, sorry, I was a bit confused since the hashes for ZRMPOEM_EN are ce9b012b8a13170a7de90cfd60b06fe2 and feeceb7a86126422a04dff98cbfaf3b655bab983. But you're right, I don't think this image has ever made it to the public before.
@Tito: The download provided there is for unofficial updates(UURollup)… I want the rollup package for all the updates MS officially released after the 1st official update rollup (i.e after the mainstream support ended up till end-of-all-support)… That guy, tomasz86, once used to provide that package, but it seems like he is no longer providing the update rollup pack 2! I want the UNOFFICIAL(obviously!) pack for OFFICIAL updates, and NOT the UNOFFICIAL pack for UNOFFICIAL updates!
Sorry I didn't notice that 'Alpha for Update Rollup 2' the first time you posted the link! Many thanks for the link!
Hello everyone! I'm tomasz86 Actually I've decided to suspend the Update Rollup 2 project. Do you actually need it? I mean, are there any people interested in installing UR2 (only official security updates inluded) and not using unofficial updates / HBRs at the same time? In case of USP5.2 I don't plan to do separate versions - it will be only one version having all stuff (official & unofficial updates, HBRs, other packages like .NET Framework, etc.) included. Since I can't add URLs (this is my first post :/) I'm attaching the message from RyanVM board:
Yes, there exist MUI for Windows 2000 but... 1) it works only if you have IE5 installed. 2) doesn't work if you update IE to IE6. 3) XP MUI works with IE6 (you need to replace the files manually) but then file versions are not displayed correctly in the system. In one word, MUI doesn't work correctly so installing it is not recommended unless you keep IE5. By the way, I've managed to open a website: windows2000.tk All information regarding USP 5.2, UURollup, Update Rollup 2 and other packages is there.
Just wanted to say thanks for this. You rock my man. Your update rollups saved my keister. I had a old Windows 2000 server die a horrible death a couple days ago (the server magically goes through two disk failures in a matter of hours - which spelled doom for a three disk RAID 5 setup). I thought installing two working disks, reloading 2000 Server, reloading the backup client, firing off a disk/system state restore, and rebooting a couple times would right everything that was wrong. I've done it before and thought nothing of it. But no - after the server came back up it refused to resolve DNS and refused domain authentication. I figure I just remove and re-add to the domain and all will be fine. I've done it before and it worked so I thought nothing of it. But no - the server still refused to do DNS. The weird thing though was that I could authenticate to things on the domain when I browsed other domain objects via IP address. I also cannot re-add to the domain because it thinks the domain does not exist. No manner of regular troubleshooting works - using other known functioning DNS servers; trying to add to the domain via command line; uninstall/re-install TCP/IP; uninstall/re-install NICs; changing this, that, and everything in the registry; etc. All important NETDIAG tests run on the faulty server return "PASSED". NSLOOKUP operations return the correct info. Can access everything (including SYSVOL on the DCs) via IP address but not by name or FQDN. Searching the Internet for fixes on this specific issue proved fruitless... What fixed all this? Update Rollup 2! Immediately after I applied the package I was able to join it to the domain! Thank goodness too because rebuilding the server would have been a nightmare. The server had old in-house apps that communicated with IBM DB2 databases, prepared reports, and then fired them off in an email. My predecessor did not leave any documentation and the developers that built the apps no longer work here.
It's good to hear that Update Rollup 2 helped you solve the problem There are about ~250 packages included in it and 150 out of these are hotfixes by request (HBRs) which are not available to download from Windows Update (you must download them one by one from M$ servers which is very time-consuming). Many of these HBRs fix issues related to Windows 2000 Server. At the moment only English version of UR2 is available but I'm going to prepare it in other supported 23 languages too. Together with another MSFN member acus we've already managed to download ~5000 files but they're not sorted yet. Compiling UR2 also takes some time (~5 hours for one package) and it must be tested later too so everything is going to take some time to be finished.
Sorry to be late to the party but looking over my stash of M$ stuff, I found: EN_WIN2000_PRO_SP4.ISO ES_WIN2000_PRO_SP4.ISO sp4psel_ja1.iso w2pfpp_cn.iso I know I have(had?) other languages but I have to find them. Off the top of my head; French, German and maybe Italian. Some came from an MSDN I had a while back and some came from a client who did language translation. I'll take a look.... I did find my white plastic MSDN box from 2000 with Win98/WinME/Win2000(pro, server, adv server) DVD - Disk 2. Ahh the memories. Found: Win2000 Brazilian Portuguese - W2PFPP_BR - CD SET X05-09830. This came from an original Retail disk and I also have a photocopied sleeve of it. Win2000 Spanish - W2POEM_ES - CD SET X05-12816. This came from an original OEM disk and I have a photocopy of the package. (So this makes an OEM and MDSN download) I know I have others. I'll edit this post with what I find.
There is no "late" in Internet: what is no longer useful for someone today, will be useful for someone else tomorrow I hope you find something in European Portuguese, with or without Service Pack
I was looking around for you but can't seem to understand a proper file name. I tried to look for W2PFPP_PT but I only found an older post by you on another site. I also looked for PT_WIN2000_PRO_SP4.ISO and PT-PT_WIN2000_PRO_SP4.ISO with no success. The one ISO you have that isn't bootable could have come from MSDN as part of a multiboot DVD but I can hardly find SHA1 or other hashes for English let alone other languages.
