Rich;
I went to the howtohaven site and followed the directions for how to
slipstream XP Service Pack 3 to create a setup disk. I followed the steps in
detail and everything went fine until I got to "6. Slipstream the Service
Pack." When I brought up the command prompt and entered C:\XPSP3
/intergrate:C:\XPSETUP, the response was "C:\XPSP3 is not recognized as an
internal or external command, operable program or batch file." I went to the
C: drive and confirmed that the file was there that I had downloaded. (I
wonder if using the link on the howtohaven site to download Service Pack 3
may be problimatic. It goes to Windows XP Service Pack 3 Network Installation
Package for IT Professionals and Developers. The downloaded file is a Self
Extracting Cabinet.) The usual Microsoft download site doesn't allow the file
to be saved. It only scans the computer to determine if you already have
Service Pack 3, which I do. Any ideas????
