Hi,
I'm thinking of using nLite to create a slipstream CD for XP Pro SP3. I have version 2002. I've been reading a lot about nLite lately but I can't seem to find all the information I need to fully understand how the program works. 1- How does Service Pack 3 integrate into your CD? nLite says to download SP3 to your desktop. What about the SP3 I already have on my computer? Will downloading SP3 again give me a completely updated SP3 with all recent updates and Hotfixes or will it be exactly the one I've downloaded a year ago (with which I'll have to provide all updates since)? 2- What about .NET Framework? Will the new SP3 include it or do I have to find that too? Do I have to include all versions, like 2.0, 3.0, 3.5... or version 3.5 SP1 will include all the previous ones? 3- What about the Hotfixes and Updates? Do I have to manually add them all? Do I copy what I see in the WinUpdatesList program for instance? 4- As for IE7 and WMP 11, are they going to be included automatically? 5- Drivers. Why doesn't nLite find them by itself? How can I know I correctly entered all the proper drivers in nLite? I'm not even sure what to look for... 6- I have Acronis True Image Home 2010 on my computer. Do I really need to create a slipstream CD? nLite seems like a big hassle to me. The instructions are not clear enough. Unless my one year old computer blows up, I don't think I'll be needing my XP CD for a long time... Thank you This post has been edited by karbo1: Oct 7 2009, 02:38 PM -------------------- Please post back if we found the solution
