Creating a "current" install disk

I am having problems with my XP installation, and I'm planning to resolve it
with a complete reinstall.

I'd like to avoid spending hours updating my old XP Home installation with
three years worth of updates and service packs.

I remember reading about a way to create an installation disk containing all
of the current content; I think it was in a magazine a couple of years back.
It's probably used by network administrators to keep their installations
current.

Does this sound familiar to anyone?

Thanks!
 
My favorite way to do this is at http://unattended.msfn.org/index.htm. Use
the 'beginning users' link to get it working. I just used theis procedure
to slipstream my original WXP upgrade to SP2 and include all the 13 or so
hotfixes since SP2 came out. I'm about to try the advanced user's method
that should also integrate all the proper drivers for my motherboard, video
and sound cards, so I won't have to do any tweaking.
