I have a copy of Windows XP Professional that I slipstreamed service pack 3 into. It now rejects its product key.If I install Windows XP Pro from this disk (an old one with no service packs) and then update to SP2 than SP3, it all goes well; but, if I slipstream SP3 first, it rejects the product key when I try to install.Can anyone offer any insight into that?
View 3 RepliesMy son moved out of town and now wants his copy of Windows XP Pro that he left behind. I have two copies that are idententical except for the product keys. Is there somewhere in Windows that would tell me which copy to send and which to keep? will he be able to reuse this disk to put on a new HD in a new computer? Can he put his old HD in a new computer?
there is a GENUINE XP PROFESSIONAL CD with it's case. But neither the case nor the CD has the product key on it. So I am not able to install it on my new HD. Is there any way to install this XP PROFESSIONAL without the product key or get the product key somehow?
I've setup Windows 2003 fax services on a W2K3 server and shared the device. I've tested faxing from Word on my PC and it works fine.However, when other users try to install the fax client, the setup hangs asking for the fx* setup files. I've tried different XPSP2 CDs, copying the files to a local directory, making sure that the users have local admin rights (and even domain admin rights) but to no avail. The files are already in the system32 directory so in theory the setup doesn't even need to copy them. Even if I delete them, it doesn't work.Our corporate SMS team reckons that there isn't any policy which could
cause the problem.
I started an upgrade for xp pro part way through the install I got a message "WatchDriverSigningPolicy.exe" no found I pressed enter then got another message "fake setup call himself instead original "setup.exe" ; setup abort!" now each time I reboot it starts to load xp then gives me the same message then press enter it then reboots.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI tried to slipstream XP w/sp1 with sp2 but when I run this command in command prompt: "xpsp2.exe -x:c:sp2 " the file begins to extract but then it says "file is corrupt" and stops. I have a sp2 disk directly from Microsoft and it's not scratched or anything, I even went to their site and downloaded the file KB835935-SP2-ENU.exe and it still came back saying "file is corrupt"
View 7 Replies View RelatedWhat i have done so far is copy the contents of my XP cd to a folder on my d: called XP-CD which contained a total of 12 files and folders. I then d/l XP-SP3 to a folder called XP-SP3 which had 1 file called windowsxp-kb936929-sp3-x86-enu.exe. I copied that file and pasted it into the XP-CD folder which now contains 13 files and folders. I then right clicked on windowsxp-kb936929-sp3-x86-enu.exe and selected extracted here. After that was done I still only had 13 files and folders in my XP-CD folder. The question I have is shouldn't I have seen more than 13 files and folders after I extracted the file windowsxp-kb936929-sp3-x86-enu.exe
View 9 Replies View RelatedI want to make a slipstreamed XP setup CD's using my XP Home and XP Pro SP1 CD's.
First question: I have to make separate CD's for XP Home and XP Pro, right? For example, If I only built the XP Pro CD, it wouldn't work with the CD key for my XP Home CD?
Second Question: My XP Home Install disk was pre SP1. So I have to include the SP1A, SP2, and SP3 downloads on it? For my XP Pro SP1, I include SP2 and SP3.
I have an XP version 2002 disk. To get all the updates on there do I have to slipstream all the service packs onto it up to SP3 or can I just do SP3?Also, does XP version 2002 even have SP1 on it?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI mistakenly launched XP Setup and want to know how to stop it from progressing further. I have another XP installed on another virtual disk. Rebooting from there allowed me delete the Setup files. Or so I thought ! The main XP installation however continues to try to launch Setup. Just about whatever I do, it ends in tears. My question is how do I stop XP on this disk from thinking it has to launch Setup? I dont want to reinstall XP, as that will involve a huge amount of work to recreate my environment.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI could reformat their computers with Windows XP Pro. I have been thinking about this and have come up with 2 choices: use nLite or something similar and create a slip stream-type format, Format one and then create an image of the new format using Acronis or Ghost and use it on all the others. Opinions Also, they have 5 or 6 different types of computers. That is, there are eMachines, Dells, etc. I doubt they have original install discs with drivers

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have heard before that you can make a disk that will incorperate both the original XP program & then SP2 using the slipstream procedure. Can this slipstream idea be taken further with XP? Like could you create a
disk that would also have all of the other updates incorperated onto your backup disk as well Can slipstreaming be done with any other programs from other suppliers where there are lots of updates
I tried to repair my Xp but I get the message that the version im running is newer than the cd..so this is my last hope before I go back to 2000.

View 8 Replies View RelatedA way to load a slipstreamed XP install onto a USB drive and still be bootable? The USB drive will be used to install a customized setup of XP onto a group of non-networked PCs that do not have an optical drive, but do have an open USB port. My hope was to not have to drag around the external optical drive, as well as the extension cord needed due to the lack of available power outlets near each PC.

View 5 Replies View RelatedDoes anybody know if its possible to slipstream IE7 into and SP2 into an XP bootable CD. I suspect the genuine advantage download will make it not possible but I know its possible to install IE7 without Genuine Advantage installed. Its a lengthy workaround so figure slipstreaming impossible. I have a slipstream SP2 XP cd but it would be really useful if I could get IE7 on there as well. Don't even know if IE7 can be slipstreamed.

This is my first attempt at slipstreaming, but it seems straight forward enough, but I cannot get it to work.
1. I copied all Folders & Files from Windows XP Installation CD to C:xpcd
2. I then downloaded SP3 from Microsoft Website and saved as e:WindowsXP-KB936929-SP3-x86-ENU.exe
3. Using the RUN Command: e:WindowsXP-KB936929-SP3-x86-ENU.exe -s:c:xpcd I also ran this from the DOS Prompt, resulting in the same problem.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have no problems creating a slipstream for SP2 and running it but i would like to find a way to customize the install a little bit more. I have about 120 clients that i need to push XP pro Sp2 too. We are going to be using an SMS server to do this. I have pushed service packs in the past with this and it works like a charm however all previous service packs did not include the firewall client. Slipstream a new version of SP2 or use another medium to accomplish this that will create a sp2 install without user interaction and without the firewall client enabled.
