Windows Update Catalog

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

Hi all -

I don't see the option to list XP SP2 in the list of operating systems on
"Find driver updates for hardware devices" of the Windows Update Catalog.

Also it appears that many of the driver updates that are listed in this
section are outdated. The 'new' WindowsUpdate at update.microsoft.com lists
new driver packages available to install but I can only find old packages on
the Windows Update Catalog site.

Any ideas on how I can manually download the driver packages that the 'new'
Windows Updates site shows me?

-Mike
