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?

    • Edifier's popular R1280Ts bookshelf speaker can be a nice upgrade for your PC desktop audio by Sayan Sen Yesterday we covered a very nice discount on Sony's high-resolution SS-CS5M2 speakers, which are currently on sale for just $178. It packs the rather rare super tweeter that offers an additional level of clarity and "airy"-ness which a tweeter cannot provide. It's a passive speaker though which means it will require external amplification, which will cost extra. Let's say though that you have a budget of under $150 but still want a decent-sounding speaker that's active. The Edifier 1280Ts can help in this regard, as the unit is currently at a decent price of $130 (purchase link under the specs table down below). While you will not get deep sub-bass from the 1280Ts, you should get clearer vocals and highs like cymbals than a cheaper satellite-based 2.1 system. Obviously the soundstage and imaging will also improve due to the better reproduction of highs. As mentioned above, the Edifier R1280Ts is active and so does not need a separate amplifier, as it's a powered system with its own amplification. A great thing about this model is that you can add a separate active subwoofer to it too using the "sub out" option, which essentially acts like an LFE. This way, you can add in the missing deep bass. The technical specifications of the Edifier R1280Ts are given in the table below: Specification Value Total Output Power 42W RMS (21W + 21W) Driver Units 4-inch mid-range/bass driver + 0.5-inch silk diaphragm treble driver Frequency Response 52Hz – 20kHz Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) ≥85dBA Input Sensitivity Line In1: R/L: 500±50mV Line In2: R/L: 700±50mV Inputs Dual RCA inputs Outputs Sub Out port for external subwoofer Get it at the link below: Edifier R1280Ts Powered Bookshelf Speakers - 2.0 Stereo Active Near Field Monitors with Subwoofer Line Out: $129.99 (Sold by Edifier Online Store, Shipped by Amazon US) This Amazon deal is US-specific and not available in other regions unless specified.

    • Appreciate the focus on UI performance, but this is going the wrong way. Instead of optimizing performance, coding to lower latency, etc. this is just throwing horsepower. This is lazy.
    • I agree, but that's the popular online opinion about them, so I followed it. I do think they have their point, no matter how combative they sound most of the time.
    • M$ can bring whatever the hell it wants, and then guess what's not installed in my Mac.
