X-Cannon Posted September 1, 2005 Report Share Posted September 1, 2005 Is there a way that I can make an ISO of XP with SP2 and some software on that. So when I install XP it will have SP2 and some programs ready to go, on either DVD or CD? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Torin_Darkflight Posted September 1, 2005 Report Share Posted September 1, 2005 (edited) As mentioned above, it is possible to "slipstream" SP2 into an XP install CD. But, there is no way to add other programs beyond that.The closest you could possibly get to having XP, SP2 and extra programs on the CD would be to install them all to a harddrive, configure it the way you want, then use Norton Ghost (Or a similar program) to burn an image of the harddrive to CD or DVD. Then, when it comes time to reinstall, simply re-write the image to the harddrive, and you'll be in business.Keep in mind, that this won't work if any major hardware (Motherboard, CPU, etc.) has been changed since the image was created, thanks in part to XP's very stupid Product Activation thing.
