View Full Version : Slipstreaming Windows XP and SP2

I've just tried two ways of slipstreaming xp and sp2 one from the Elder Geek
and one from Michael Stevens tech, neither of which worked? One gave me an
error message and the other never gave me an indication that they were
integrated. Does anyone have a full proof method they could pass along?
Please note that I followed the directions to a tea and double checked
everything and also tried both methods twice. Once using the sp2 cd and once
using the download from Microsoft. If this is the better way of installing
sp2 it sure is hard just getting started.

Thank you for you time,

Dennis

Nope. Google did not even show a result for Autoslipstreamer.exe.

Sorry;
Here is a proper link for the Autostreamer program. Works well, no
problems in its use to date.

Thanks all...................first method worked ok but was unable to make a
disk with "roxy". Tried to download trial version of Nero but it told me
that my trail version was expired? Now I have the disk ready to copy but no
way of doing it? O-well, just another day of trial and error with error
winning out again, ha ha.

I'll try and figure out something tomorrow.

Thanks again,

Dennis
