Guest WMB Posted June 3, 2008 Posted June 3, 2008 Hello, I have my original Windows disk. XP (Gold) and a download of SP3. The download is 316MB and identified as a Self-Extracting Cabinet, Windows-Kb 936929. Can I slipstream this SP3 & my XP(Gold) to create a bootable Windows XPSP3 install CD? I'll be using nLight or Autostreamer for the slipstream process. Is there something I have to do with the SP3 download before slipstreaming it to my XP? Thanks for any help
Guest Pablo Posted June 3, 2008 Posted June 3, 2008 Re: Slipstreaming SP3 You will have to slipstream either SP1 or SP2 1st as they are pre-requisites for SP3.

Guest ANONYMOUS Posted June 3, 2008 Posted June 3, 2008 Re: Slipstreaming SP3 Yes you can and in my current system from which I am writing this reply, I have done exactly that. From Dell branded XP gold TO SP3. [i did not bother with SP1 (I still have a copy of this !!!) or SP1a or SP2]. My system is as fast and smooth as I expected it to be! I have seen no problems what so ever thus far. The only difference of doing this way is that when you perform a clean install using this CD/DVD (as I did), you will need to provide your windows serial number before installation can proceed. However, if you slipstream SP2 first then SP3, the new CD/DVD will not ask you for your windows serial number at the time of installation and you need to supply this within 30 days or you would be locked out. There is some doubt in the minds of people who don’t understand the meaning of word “Installation” as used in MS documents. MS documents says that you need either SP1, SP1a or SP2 before you can install SP3. This is quite true but this does not apply to slipstreaming as you are not “INSTALLING” anything here!. You are just integrating it to your Windows share. hth WMB wrote: >Hello, I have my original Windows disk. XP (Gold) and a download of SP3.

Wrong. Direct from the overview of SP3: "You can run the SP3 update package on any edition of Windows XP SP1 or SP2."

Guest ANONYMOUS Posted June 3, 2008 Posted June 3, 2008 Re: Slipstreaming SP3 Patrick is either talking about "INSTALLATION" [ not "INTEGRATION" ] or he does not understand "slipstreaming" and the process it goes through. For slipstreaming you don't need any SPs because you are not INSTALLING anything. hth Meinolf Weber wrote: > Hello Patrick, > > Sorry for that.
