Slipstreaming Windows XP Service Pack 2 & Boot CD!


Recommended Posts

Well Well Well....

Been a while since this thread was active.

However I have mad a few updates to my guide.

I am looking for a few volunteers who can help write up a part for the guide explaining to those who have OEM disks like Dell ones and run into the error when slipstreaming. If anyone has been able to successfully slipstream an OEM dell or other manufactueres disk please tell me as I would love to talk to you to help me write this part of the manual and full credit to yourself. Please note that even after a successfull slipstream the disk will not always work when trying to install for those who have done it with the oem dell disk. so im asking for those who have slipstreamed and been able to install 100% using an oem dell or other manufactuers disk.

I beleive the process involves removing a few files, however after this alot of people are having problems with a currupt file. if you have been able to pull this of successfully please post here.

could you do this for roxio...I have easy cd creator. I am not buying anything new since it fills all of my needs, so i intend to try this with the roxio software. I know, I know, I should have nero but not everyone is gets it with a new computer or is a techy. ( ;) no offense to the techies!) If you can make a try at it, I would be most thankful. :D

Actually Roxio Easy CD Creator is just as capable of performing this task as Nero Burning Rom is. I can write up a manual for this and make it an optional part of my current manual. However unfortunately something has happened to my hosting. I am seeking reliable hosting so that my manual can be hosted for free. If anyone is willing to donate web space please mention it here. The manual usually received around 1GIG of bandwidth in three or less weeks and uses less then 10MB of space at this point in time. :)

Do i need to change the serial when i slipstream xp and sp2 as my windows xp uses the FCKGW serial if so how do i do it

webferret, not to attack you, but many people know that part of serial number you have posted. Neowin does not allow those kind of questions in here. I saw that 1 of your posts was removed by a moderator, because it was a warez question, and if I'm wrong someone correct me plz. I'm just letting you know. Read the rules to understand them better.

Good luck!

I could host the site on my server. I have a Roadrunner cable connection with a Windows 2003 Server running a web/ftp server along with a few game servers. So that the manual is online most of the time my server would work for some free hosting. Upload speed is around 45 KB/s.

Get Autostreamer.exe. It is free and simple. Two clicks and the job gets done.

damn, slipstreaming SP2 using the link that

Nastrodamus posted is long as hell.

AutoStreamer will do the job. Like 6 clicks and ready to go (Y)

Also if anyone can supply any hosting I would appreciate it. I would like to have as many copies of the site hosted by multiple people as possible.

So please if you are able to host my site (VERY SMALL ONLY THIS DOCUMENT), and would like high traffic then please leave a note.

    • BleachBit 6.0.1 Beta by Razvan Serea When your computer is getting full, BleachBit quickly frees disk space. When your information is only your business, BleachBit guards your privacy. With BleachBit you can free cache, delete cookies, clear Internet history, shred temporary files, delete logs, and discard junk you didn't know was there. Designed for Linux and Windows systems, it wipes clean thousands of applications including Firefox, Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome, Opera, Safari, and more. Beyond simply deleting files, BleachBit includes advanced features such as shredding files to prevent recovery, wiping free disk space to hide traces of files deleted by other applications, and vacuuming Firefox to make it faster. Better than free, BleachBit is open source. BleachBit has many useful features: Delete your private files so completely that "even God can't read them" according to South Carolina Representative Trey Gowdy. Simple operation: read the descriptions, check the boxes you want, click preview, and click delete. Multi-platform: Linux and Windows Free of charge and no money trail Free to share, learn, and modify (open source) No adware, spyware, malware, browser toolbars, or "value-added software" Translated to 64 languages besides American English Shred files to hide their contents and prevent data recovery Shred any file (such as a spreadsheet on your desktop) Overwrite free disk space to hide previously deleted files Portable app for Windows: run without installation Command line interface for scripting and automation CleanerML allows anyone to write a new cleaner using XML Automatically import and update winapp2.ini cleaner files (a separate download) giving Windows users access to 2500+ additional cleaners Frequent software updates with new features Going beyond standard deletion of files, BleachBit has several advanced cleaners: Clear the memory and swap on Linux Delete broken shortcuts on Linux Delete the Firefox URL history without deleting the whole file—with optional shredding Delete Linux localizations: delete languages you don't use. More powerful than localepurge and available on more Linux distributions. Clean APT for Debian, Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu, and Linux Mint Find widely-scattered junk such as Thumbs.db and .DS_Store files. Execute yum clean for CentOS, Fedora, and Red Hat to remove cached package data Delete Windows registry keys—often where MRU (most recently used) lists are stored Delete the OpenOffice.org recent documents list without deleting the whole Common.xcu file Overwrite free disk space to hide previously files Vacuum Firefox, Google Chrome, Liferea, Thunderbird, and Yum databases: shrink files without removing data to save space and improve speed Surgically remove private information from .ini and JSON configuration files and SQLite3 databases without deleting the whole file Overwrite data in SQLite3 before deleting it to prevent recovery (optional) BleachBit 6.0.1 Beta release notes: BleachBit 6.0.1 beta is now available for testing. This maintenance-focused release includes bug fixes, updated translations, and a range of safe enhancements. This release fixes a Windows security issue that could allow arbitrary file deletion during privileged cleaning (reported by Zeze with TeamT5). It also adds new cleaners (including a DNS cache cleaner, Claude Code, and Visual Studio Code forks), support for multiple Chrome and Edge profiles, new deep scan options for developer directories like node_modules and venv, and safer, faster file shredding. All Platforms Added cleaners for Claude Code, DNS cache, and many Visual Studio Code forks. Added support for multiple Chrome and Edge profiles. Chrome can now clean downloaded AI models. Deep Scan can optionally remove venv, __pycache__, node_modules, and .angular directories. Deep Scan is faster by skipping directories on the keep list. File shredding is safer, faster, and leaves fewer recoverable traces. Improved handling of cookies, symlinks, Unicode filenames, external processes, and configuration files. Improved Expert Mode warnings and long warning dialogs. Fixed crashes related to cleaner detection, invalid Unicode, and malformed cleaner data. Clipboard is now cleared automatically after shredding files via paste operations. Linux Added AppImage support. Added cleaners for Visual Studio Code, Codeium, Librewolf (.deb), Transmission (Flatpak), and Profanity. Improved Linux trash detection, including Snap-installed applications and mounted drives. Fixed Wayland root CLI issues and several Snap-related problems. Improved package dependencies, AppStream metadata, and desktop file handling. Fixed startup crashes when Python Requests is unavailable. Windows Fixed a security vulnerability that could allow arbitrary file deletion when cleaning with elevated privileges. Added %WindowsSystem% variable support. Improved clipboard clearing using native Windows APIs. Improved installer experience on unsupported Windows versions. Reduced installer size and improved application robustness. Fixed Unicode handling, filename anonymization, Git revision reporting, and splash screen stability.

    • DriversCloud 12.1.6 by Razvan Serea With DriversCloud (formerly My-Config.com), you can explore your computer easily, safely and free. The application quickly scans your PC and identifies the hardware and software components. DriversCloud then establishes a list of the different drivers compatible with your OS and hardware. Download the drivers needed for the proper functioning of your computer. To detect your drivers, DriversCloud also displays a detailed summary of your hardware and software configuration, analyzes your BSOD, monitors in real-time your PC voltages and temperatures and lets you share your configuration online. Once the hardware components have been detected, you will be able to obtain with just a few clicks the latest drivers corresponding to the identified hardware. You can record your configuration on the site for free, and can get the corresponding URL to post the configuration to technical forums, e-mail and social networks. You can also download the detection result (the configuration) as a PDF file. To protect the user's privacy and data confidentiality, a 4-level confidentiality system was created that filters the XML marks and gives control to the user. The default level can be modified in the preferences. Using the maximum level will prevent the user from publishing his configuration and generating a corresponding PDF file. In non-connected mode, each XML configuration is stored on the server for one day (for practical reasons). However, you are given the opportunity to manually delete it. Created in 2004, and continually improved, My-Config.com has established itself on the web as a free service to PC users running Windows and Linux operating systems. The service is designed to work with the most common Internet browsers (Edge, Firefox, Chrome, Safari).
