there has been a more stable release windows xp media center edition which a 2 CD pack. xp home sp2 is good. u could go to their home page and gt the updates then and there or use the automatic updates feature to get them. updates can be done automaticallym but not the OS itself...

the best would be to go for
Autopatcher as thay will scan ur system and modify the left componenets only
and sp2 is the latest

dont go for autopatcher jun edition 2005.
it has loads of bugs and ur pc will crash more than what u whud have ever seen,
neowin admits to some faults itself.
so dont go for autopatcher.
