Windows XP+SP2 CD?

[Guest]

I need help on how I can make a Windows XP CD with SP2 applied. I guess I
need it in case I will have to use "sfc" command to reinstall system
protected files, when it asks me to insert the Windows XP CD.

Hi

You can create a slipstreamed SP2 CD:

You can download the SP2 file (266 MBs) from here:

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...BE-3B8E-4F30-8245-9E368D3CDB5A&displaylang=en -
or if you have a copy of the SP2 CD, you can copy the xpsp2.exe file that
onto your hard disk/partition and use that:

and then follow the directions in the following article to create a
slipstreamed XP CD:

Will,

Is the slipstreaming process doable with the XP Upgrade CD as well as the
full version?

Thanks,

Hi

Yes - you can use either an upgrade CD or a full version CD.

It looks like this nLite does a bunch of things, but... downloading net
framework (106 MB), installing it - and I really don't need stripping
anything out of my XP installation disc... I only need to SP2 my XP CD... and
using this program is very much like taking a 747 to travel from Brooklyn to
Manhattan... ))

I'm sure there should be a nice command that would allow me to apply SP2 on
the installation CD (copied onto hard drive, of course), like "update", I
used something like that in order to make a SP1-ed XP CD... (I've already got
the full version of SP2 - for net administrators).
