Happy Holidays, SM*ers!

Is it documented anywhere the appropriate way to upgrade the client?

Scenario:

You have an NT client at 3.1.0.6 and you want to upgrade it to the latest
level of the client which is 4.2.1.18.

Do you upgrade to TSM 4.2.1.0 first and then upgrade to the patch of
TSM 4.2.1.18?

I have tried both ways:

Upgrading to 4.2.1.0 & then installing the patch of 4.2.1.18 &
also just upgrading straight to the patch?

Both seems to work?

But, seems as if when I go straight to the patch, the ba client
gui console complains about "Error initializing the cache. Shutdown all
programs and run scandisk or chkdsk. Delete the cache, cookies and history
directories in your windows directory and then restart IE. If the problem
persists reinstall IE."

The fix for this I guess is to un-install & re-install the client so the
dscameng.txt file will be at its latest level!

Any input would be HELPFUL!!!!!

Thanks,
