Its been a while since i've slip streamed so I want to get this cleared up before i do anything
The only XP CD I can find is my original release pre-SP1 disk.
I want to make a XP install disk with SP3, like I did with SP2 [which I can not find]
Can I slipstream SP3 right into my original pre-sp 1 XP disk, or am I going to have to download SP1 and SP2 and sequentially build it up to get all the fixes on it?
The program is super easy to use. At the end of the whole process it will prompt you to create an ISO.
Enjoy.
If you have any other questions I pretty much do this kind a shit for work, we don't use nLite because its not for corporations but I've played with it enough.
I pretty sure you can also slip stream your SATA drivers so you don't have to press F6 during the install from the CD.
Ok, so you can physically slipstream SP3 into an install disk
but unless you are slipstreaming it into a SP2 disk, it wont work, because apparently it does something to the authentication that makes it reject every legit key you enter during install.
It may not even work in SP2, General Win said thats how he deployed SP3 by slipstreaming into SP2 disks when I talked to him yesterday, so thats that

Alternatively, Microsoft (used to?) distributes an XP SP3 ISO. It might only be available through MSDN and Technet now, though...
Also certain XP license keys are attached to certain media. For example, if you try and use an old SP1 Key on a new SP3 cd, it probably wouldn't work.
It may work if you slipstream it up to SP3 though. Again, I only have experience with SP2->SP3.
