On that note (and I've been wondering this for a while as I've never done it
and since I still use XP and plan on doing so until at least SP1 for Win7),
is there a "recommended" build for doing the slipstreaming? I've heard/seen
you guys posting about it, but one reason I've never done it is I've never
been sure what level of patches, etc to include on it...also, I seem to have
lost my links on how to do it; is there a best site for info on this (since
googling returns lots of diff hits)?
Would like to rebuild this laptop (I got the XP disks for it from IBM) but
they're all SP1 at the latest and the pain of all the patches is keeping me
from it (it's never been rebuilt since I got in 2005 and it definitely could
use it!). Thanks for any tips guys...

Subject: [H] SP 3 Problem ?
Had the need to do a repair install and none of my xp disks with sp3
streamed into them will not allow a repair install, can not even get to the
console. Had to use my sp2 disk.
Is this a bug in sp3 or is there a problem when nlite streamed it ? I can re
do them I guess.
I like the way Vista and W7 allows a repair from f8 but it has been my
experience ( so far ) that it will only allow this with existing HW. Change
the motherboard and your screwed.
Thanks
