XP SP3 Local Download

The MS download (when available) should go through local bandwidth anyway.. when it's on microsoft.com I'll get it.
 
Upload your LAST SESSION.INI from nLite somewhere and I'll have a look (usually nLite keeps a copy on the root of the CD also).

To get rid of blue border do this

My computer> properties> advanced> performance> settings visual effects> Tick "use drop shadows for icon labels.."> Apply
 
Heh, Occam's Razor prevails, there was me thinking it might be a problem with the actual CD :p

Seems like nobody reads my posts on this forum... I've mentioned how many times that it will be possible to download locally from microsoft's servers.
:rolleyes:

Microsoft's link works on local!

Come on now people...

You can download most stuff from microsoft on local if you have a direct link!

Just run a traceroute to the links on local and you'll see.

Dude you are downloading from Microsoft US ".com" directly not SA

The akamai servers allow us to access it locally, I don't know how the technology works, somebody should shed some light on this but I have been downloading locally from microsoft since last year, Apple uses Akamai as well and I download locally from them as well (like itunes, quicktime and OSX updates)
