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

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?

    • It does invite Linux because MS should have been improving their products all along these years instead chose to ignore the users now this year they’re making all of these improvements to their products where as Linux doesn’t have this kind of problems in fact it has gotten so good I can even play Windows games in Steam that I no longer ever needed Windows to carry on with my life, unlike you still use Windows and chose to try beat down down those who don't use Windows because they love their LG TV. (Surprisingly I actually own a 55” LED LG TV and it has been going strong for almost 14 years, longer than any Sony TV”)
    • As much as I love owning my own hardware, it's hard to argue with the value. I'm not a huge gamer, I'd actually be interested in a cheaper plan with limited monthly hours, or even a pay-by-the-hour plan.
    • Well, they (LibreOffice/The Document Foundation) are bitchy and whiny, yes, but they're right, at least this time. It doesn't make sense to market something as "free and open source to thwart dependency on foreign companies' software" but at the same time, using the formats of said companies (Microsoft) by default. That way, you are changing nothing, essentially, you're just using another UI. We all know that users just use the defaults and almost never change them. I'm not saying they should drop other formats altogether, but they shouldn't default to the thing they're trying to run away from in the first place. If you're gonna do something, just go all the way in, don't stop in the middle, IMO. Otherwise, shut up and move along.
