Win XP SP2 Slipstream Setup Disk

[Maurice Palin]

I've made a Slipstreamed SP2 setup disk utilising my
original Win XP setup disk - labelled "WXPVOL_EN". It
boots fine and loads to the first option screen. When I
press enter to install new system, it returns a cant find
hard drive message. Any ideas ???

Which build of SP2 did you use and where did you get it from, since it is
not finally released yet ?

The disk label is not from a retail version of Windows XP. It is either an
OEM Version, or a pirated copy.

Maurice,

Your "original Win XP setup disk" CD has the disk label WXPVOL_EN.
This indicates that it is volume licensed media.
This is not a CD you would be supplied with a PC or one you could actually
buy.
Was this original CD supplied to you by your company you work for? If so
contact your IT department for the correct support route for VL media and
Volume Licensed contracted support with Microsoft.
If you acquired this by any other route then you appear to have "pirated"
software and should purchase a full retail license (and CD).

Also, since XP SP2 is still "BETA", you should be directing any
questions related to SP2 to the specific SP2 BETA newsgroups.
