Default slipstreaming SP2 into XPpro

How can I get the files for SP2 if they have already been downloaded and
installed? I would like to create a bootable disc to install XP with SP2
already included. I have the nlite program but I cannot find the files for
SP2 that I need. I can't download them from either of my machines because it
is installed on both.
Any Ideas?
TIA...........Mark N.

I used Autostreamer to make the slipstreamed ISO then that ISO
instantly made a bootable CD with a real old copy of nero that came with
my 6 or 7 yr old acer cd burner ... super easy & it works - made some
spares for here and there so I have em handy everywhere & saved the ISO for
when these 6 or 7 yr old CD's fall apart.

The February issue of PC Today magazine has an excellent article about doing
just what you want. It's called "Outside The BOX:Slipstreaming". It might be
available online(PC Today.com) Good luck!
