Get Tools To Change Windows OS Key Out And Slipstream Mine In?
Jun 7, 2006
I own a copy of Windows XP SP1 but I want to download and use a customized and slimmed down version. 99% of those you can download will not validate with Windows Genuine Advantage checking so I would like to change the key on one downloaded and use my own legit key. No I don't want to spend the hours to create my own. I can have a real XP copy thats been slimmed for performance by someone who's sharing it with me - I wont get into how or where for reasons I'm sure are obvious.I have that key and an OEM WinXP Home version but that has no key I dont think and I'd have to extract it and work on it - not ready for all that fuss.Guess the question is: Anyone know where I can get the tools to change my Windows OS key out and slipstream mine in? Would Nlite do all of this?I'll keep searching and thank you for any replies.

how can I change the boot screen of Windows XP without using any third party tools like Style XP, Tume Up Utilities etc. Moreover, what is the size of a boot screen in Pixels and the file type of a boot screen. Is there any other things that I need to remember while designing a boot screen.

Is there anyway I can dial into a friends computer from mine? We both have Windows XP and she is having a simple computer error that I KNOW I can fix if I had access to her computer. She lives too far away for me to go to her computer, and I do not want her to be ripped off by calling a repair shop. But she cannot grasp the steps I am giving her to fix it.

I've used programs like Style XP or Theme XP but non of them have the theme I want. I want windows to look the way it does when you chose Start Shut down. Basically a greyscale theme is what I'm looking for. I realize that sounds wierd but maybe someone out there already has it and they wouldn't mind pointing me to where it can be found.

I reinstalled Windows for my sister, who is visually impaired. I just installed Windows XP Pro. Just finished it, and then handed it over to her, to customize her settings. Since she has bad vision, she usually lowers the resolution down to 800x600 and has the font size and title bar sizes larger. Well as soon as I left her alone with her computer, she messed up the windows or icon settings so bad, so everything is HUGE. Everything is so huge, that (what should be) small menus now fill the whole screen. We can't get to the part of the preferences window to change the resolution to something higher, and we can't get to anywhere (that we know of) to change anything back to something resembling normal. Basically, we can't do anything anymore.I know I can reinstall Windows XP all over again, but since I JUST DID THAT I'd like to avoid having to do it all over again. Is there some way to reset the preferences, without having to reinstall the whole operating system for something so seemingly idiotic?

I 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"

What 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

I 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?

i was told that one could create a 'slipstream' disc on which xp pro, sp2, and updates after are installed during installation. True? If so how? I reinstall my OS each year and it would be a blessing to install all at one time.

I 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

I 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

A 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.

Does 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.
