I have learned about slipstreaming and made a bootable cd with Windows XP
Pro Upgrade that I've purchased last year from a store and XP SP2 that was
released recently.
It works fine!
However, since my Windows XP Pro is an Upgrade, during setup I am prompted
to insert my Windows ME or other cd's that I've purchased to prove that I
have had an OS installed before upgrading to XP Pro. It is an extra step for
me.
I was hoping to get these files updated with the slipstreamed cd that I've
made so I don't have to change cd's everytime I format my computer to flush
viruses, etc.
Is there a way to do this?
What files is the setup looking for?
Can I copy these to the Windows XP Pro SP2 cd and point to that folder
during setup?
Thank you in advance.
PS. I have both cd's (XP Pro and ME) legit. So, I'm not worried about any
legality since I am doing this as a convenience and backup.
Thank you again.
