    Win XP CD with SP2 not Slipstreamed

    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.

    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.
