Thanks Mark but I'm not sure which path to enter. Can you give me an
example? What is the path on your setup? Using search I found numerous paths
in C: for SP2. e.g. SP2.cab = C:\windows\driver cache\i386

Your "Installation Path" can be reset.
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\...

.Windows\Current Version\Setup:
Service Source Path

.Windows\Current Version\Setup:
Source Path

.WindowsNT\Current Version -
Source Path

change them to the directory with the XP Files

For Pro Edition: GPEDIT.MSC Local Comp. Policy/Comp. Config/Admin.
Templates/System "Specify Windows Installation file location" (some report
needing to press "r" for 'retry', quite a few times)

Used AutoStreamer and burned CD. Used CD to clean install XP Pro w/SP2.
Tried SFC /SCANNOW and get the loop telling me to insert XP SP2 CD,
Retry,
Retry, Retry... What's up with that?
