I heard someone talking about having a Windows XP Pro CD with Service Pack 2 already installed on it and it wasn't slipstreamed. Does anyone know how to create a disk like this?

I can only think he meant that he bought an XP SP2 CD from a retailer.
As far as I know the only way for you to produce one yourself is to slipstream it

Yes, the very latest versions of XP on the shelves will be XP SP2. But a slipstreamed CD is identical in all respects to buying a factory made WinXP SP2 CD.
Auto Streamer is a free and very easy to use program to slipstream SP 2 into XP.

Thanks for the help guys. I'm going to try Auto Streamer today. I will let you know how it works.
Ok, tried AutoStreamer and it's not much different than slipstreaming. It just incorporated the service pack into a windows image for you. You still have to create a bootable disk and then burn.
Auto Streamer will set it up so it's bootable.
