I saw this in a post that jmatt made. This is a really valuable
program that I've overlooked, so I'd like to throw it out for
consideration as a late entry. Here is the info:

AutoStreamer v1.0.30 (no-install)
http://www.majorgeeks.com/download4444.html

AutoStreamer v1.0.30 (installer)
http://www.ubcd4win.com/downloads/AutoStreamer.exe

This program will read your Windows install CD and a service pack on
your hard drive. It will create a new .iso to create a new Windows
Install CD with the service pack incorporated into it. This saves much
time in future reinstalls and provides you with an important backup of
your MS Install CD

For recovery CDs: Follow the directions on the following page to
create a clean Windows Install CD. You will need to backup your
drivers with a program like WinDrivers Backup or download the various
drivers and burn them to a CD. Then use Autopatcher to create an .iso
to create a new install CD with the latest service packs incorporated
within it.

Comments as a late entry?

From "win 2000 on" is a bit foggy. I don't think that it works on Win
ME and before...

The author is "raptor" and I don't have any info for him. Antonis and
Ben were the project managers. I kinda know Ben, so I used him as a
contact.

Supported. Used it a while ago, and worked OK for me.

From "win 2000 on" is a bit foggy

Probably means NT family, meaning Win NT, 2000, XP, 2003...
and not Win 9x and ME.

All the best,
Bjorn Simonsen

BTW, this is supposed to be standard feature of the next Windows OS version,
"Vista" (it's still a stupid name).
