    Slipstreaming is superb! I used to do it all the time when I used to run Windows. I suggest using nLite + whatever Service Packs to get the job done. Not at all hard, and saves you a lot of time.

    I first use Driver grabber to get all the drivers.

    Than use Nlite to take an image using retial XP MCE 2005, add drivers, hotfixes, components & make it bootable & than burn the ISO??

    Thanx....hoping to hear your views,

    Tried it once didnt work all together.......
