OK, this should be so simple, but I cannot figure it out.

I have tried slipping SP2 to my copy of the original Gold release of XP Pro using Autostreamer. Everything appears to work fine, up until it's time to actually create the .iso. Then the GUI window tells me that it's now creating the .iso file, but like 5 seconds later, it announced it is finished, and of course , it isn't.

I point AS to my CD of XP, then point it to my SP2 file, I use the suggested "WINXPSP2.iso" name for the .iso, and ask for it to be put in F:\. The program runs, does the slipstream process normally.

So what am I missing here? :cry:

AS is installed in C/Programs/Autostreamer

SP2 is on my E partition

XP disc in CDROM drive

hey i havent tried usin the program yet but i did open it and insert my windows xp cd..in the 2nd screenshot it says their cd is 701 mb...but on mine wen i inserted the cd was only 535 mb..i was wonderin what happened? my cd works great i have no problems installing but i was jus wondering what that missin 200mb+ is? heres the screenshot of my cd..

The 701MB reading is incorrect and is a bug/glitch. :)

Hmmmm.. I didn't creat an ISO, but created a winrar file for me instead??

Did I miss something? All the right files are there, but I thought it would be ISO and not .rar..

Im sure I could just unrar, and burn those files

That confused me a bit too. I used Nero and started up image burning and Nero recognized it as an iso file so I went ahead and burned it even though the file looks like WinRAR.

It's ok. Nothing's lost. Just burn it with Nero and voila.

I tried slipstreaming winXP oem sp1a with WindowsXP-KB835935-SP2-ENU.exe and it took about 10 mins. After I installed it it still said Service Pack 1 so evidently it didn't work. I did get a update.exe error. Oh well I'll do it manually with nero..no biggie.

Did you run it in Windows 2000 SP4?

    • Close, but it is for any application starting, not just during boot time. In fact, it probably will not improve boot time at all because during a boot, the CPU is already boosting, so a pre-boost wouldn't change anything. I agree that it isn't exciting (especially considering every other OS already does it), but it is a good thing, even if they are just playing catch up.
    • Any so called performance increase will be in milliseconds, which nobody will actually notice in real world usage.
    • All it does is use the CPU more efficiently during boot to speed up boot times. That's it. Yawn....
    • It's not a one or the other kind of thing. Software should run efficiently, and the operating system should appropriately manage the CPU clocks. You could have the best most optimized software on earth, and it will still run faster if the CPU does a better job of boosting as needed. All this is doing is pre-boosting the CPU based on user actions, instead of waiting for the normal detection mechanism to kick in. If the OS knows it is about to need more CPU, why shouldn't it use that knowledge? It's the same idea of downshifting before passing someone, instead of just burying your foot into the peddle and waiting for the transmission to figure out what you want to do.
