Has anyone slipstreamed SP3 yet? If so, please post your experiences with it.

no problem at all just do it the same way as with sp 1-2 works great for me
-
Works just like slipstreaming SP2
-
Hey everyone,
Remember to make a new txtsetup.sif file in your boot folders, if using the modular setup at my site. SP3 will write some new info into the file and make changes.
-
I just did and it was easy. Works great!!
-
I havent had a problem slipstreaming sp3 but anyone know how to edit bootbin to represent windows 2000 SP3. I know i had this problem with sp2, but fixed it by extracting a downloading the boot.bin file that was already modified. I like to have an original like bootable cd with a sif file on floppy. If i need to edit the info in the sif file i can make a new file instead of reburning the images. any help is appreciated.

Hi!
I have managed to slipstream perfectly and install it but i now want to create a unattened insatllation does anyon know how to create and can you tell me where i can place this file on the CD and not the floppy to install off the CD also how can a install Windows Media Player 7.1, IE6 and DirectX 8.1 staraight after installtion W2K with not user interactions completly automated
-
The slipstreaming works great but I am having an issue with MSADOMD.DL_ not being recognised - installed during the last phase of installation.
-
i installed it...... first i slipstreamed it into my sp2 install folder, formatted and tried to install fresh-during the hardware setup it BSOD with a stop error .. did this 4x until i reinstalled from an old SP1 cd..
applied SP3 to SP1 via GUI and it went well.......but then i installed some drivers and software and rebooted, it would boot up into windows, and BSOD with the same stop error
driver_irql_not_less_or_equal
scsiport.sys
-
check out www.bink.nu
First you make sure you\'ve got the boot file and then the sp3 extracted. Now when applying it, don\'t apply like you did sp2. Don\'t apply it directly to the i386 folder, apply to the folder that has i386 in it.
-
Can someone give me a step-by-step tutorial on how to slipstream SP3 into W2K.

Slipstream SP3, works for me using VMware to test it. I just need to modify my winnt.sif file a little more and figure out how to install IE6, WMP 7, and DirectX 8.1, and drivers automatically by itselft and I\'m set.
-
I recently tried slippinstreaming SP3 and using the serial bypass detailed on this site at:
http://www.thetechguide.com/articles/win2kserial.html (http://\"http://www.thetechguide.com/articles/win2kserial.html\")
The install seemed to be going fine, but then it said invalid PID and gave up. Have Microsoft become wise to this fix and stopped it with SP3 or did I do something wrong?
has anyone else managed this successfully?
Thanks.
-
yea wtf me too. I went through the beginning setup fine till it found a problem with some reg string about the pid being off (showed an 8 in parenthesis) and something about the version (1 in parenthesis). Seems the server and aserver have a product type of 1 and pro has a product type of 0......whatever.....Any ideas anyone to what the heck is going on????
-
i have the same problem with the PID and /or the product type not being correct or missing in some reg string....any1 have any ideas???
-
It\'s definately a problem with changing 000 to 270 in i386setupp.ini, as I repeated the same thing exactly appart from this edit and it worked perfectly.
For now all I can suggest to avoid having to enter the CD Key in manually when you install is to use the Autoinstallation method.
Use the utility included in win2k
extract supporttoolsdeploy.cab using winzip
run setupmgr.exe (this is part of deploy.cab)
enter all the information it asks for including CD-Key
this creates a file called unnattend.txt
rename this to winnt.sif
and place it in the i386 directory on the CD and reburn it.
-
yea its wierd. i have changed that parameter (270) on other images that i have made and everything works well, but on the images where i have changed (in w2kall.bin) the initial screen where the choices of which OS to load....well those images give me that PID error. Thats some wierd stuff right there....just goes to show you that windows is freakin buggy all the way down to the core. (prolly really just some user error ...as always)
-
hello again, I ran setupmgr and It didnt ask me for the CDkey....Where the heck do you set that parameter???
-
Just pop your CD-key in the Userdata section of the answer file (either unattend.txt or winnt.sif).
[UserData]
FullName=\"User\"
OrgName=\"Company\"
ComputerName=\"pc1\"
ProductID=xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx
Just for your info my Windows 2000 SP2 select agreement CD has the modified setuppp.ini (270 no key required) i`ll post what i find when we get our SP3 CD from MS.
Cheers
Ian
-
Nuts! my mistake,
I forgot that was something you had to add to winnt.sif manually. The line you need to add is ProductID as shown below:
obviously change the xxxxx\'s for you info
[UserData]
ProductID=XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX
FullName=\"xxxxx\"
OrgName=\"xxxxx\"
ComputerName=*

hey i did slipstream the sp3 succesfully with the instructions on how to do the sp2 and i also modified the setup.ini so it does not require the oem product key
-
I used Roxio Easy CD creator 5 to burn my bootable Slipstreamed Sp3 win2k server without problem.
But when I tried to add $OEM$ folder into the CD, the folder name is not accepted by the file system.
Is it CDRWIN can fix this problem?
Can SLAM tell a little bit more about the process of integrating IE6 & post IE6 patches?
Cheers!
-
i few question first can i make a unattend script so i will set up my network for me
you know make a lan connection with xxxxx settings. And then have it set up my dial up connection with xxxx settings
adn at the end of the PID number in my setup.ini it says oem not 000 hwo can i fix this so i caint got to put it in wioht out makign a unattend script.
-
Yes you can setup connection settings to a point anyway. Check the unattend.doc file that M$ sends out. It should have a section giving you all the options available. Long document.
If the PID ends with OEM change it instead of 000.
ie... 000=270 will now be OEM=270
-
Would you email me how you did it, kind of a step by step. I have inherited a ris server with sp2 based images, how do I update the images to sp3. It would be a life saver, please email me at blackxpboxEmail Removed.
-
Have you recieved the info? If so please email it to blackxpboxEmail Removed. I am in your same situation. Thanks...

Try this site http://www.nu2.nu/bootcd/ (http://\"http://www.nu2.nu/bootcd/\") this guy knows what he\'s talkin\' about there\'s a very good doc on how to slipstream and remove produckt id
and if you want to make a winnt.sif then do it with the windows 2000 setupmanager the tool is on the w2k server cd
in the supporttoolsDeploy.cab open this file and the open setupmgr.exe to make your winnt.sif file place it in the i386 folder and you done for a full automatic installation
P.S.If you have copied windows 2000 from MSDN CD you can disable the product key prompt:
Edit i386/setupp.ini file, remove the read-only attribute and open the file in notepad.
Change the last 3 digits of the Pid number to 270
Example:
[Pid]
ExtraData=123456789012345678901234567890
Pid=12345270
this trick works great

Many thanks for giving valuable information for the
slipsteaming of SP3 with w2k. I thing it was not
possible to me if I did not find WINCDMAN 1.01 web page.
This tool works fine to me but the problem is when I
boot this cd w2k setup give me an error \"You are about
to install and evaluation version of Windows 2000
Porfessional which will expire after 120 days......\".
Kindly help me out or let me know if any process is
wrong or I am missing some thing. I have all
registered W2k Prof installation and SP3 downloaded
from Microsoft\'s web page.

If you ever need to know how to slipstream a Service Pack, I would suggest www.bink.nu
He's certified in several categories, and he uses Nero (a MUCH better burning software)

----HERE'S A POSSIBLE SOLUTION IF YOU HAVE NFORCE MB----
I had the DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL problem with a reference to scsiport.sys... it mainly occurred when I tried to get into any of my drive properties, preventing me from using scandisk,etc.
Here is how I fixed it:
(First off, here are my system specs)
Windows XP
AMD Athlon 3200+
nVidia GeForce 5600
512mb DDR
WD HD
nForce2
I've been trying to fix it or months to no avail, checking every site google pulls up.
Finally, I went to nVidia's site and downloaded the newest drivers (Unified 2.4) for IDE, Audio, etc.
They can be found at this page: http://www.nvidia.com/object/nforce_udp_winxp_4.24 (http://\"http://www.nvidia.com/object/nforce_udp_winxp_4.24\")
I also downloaded the nVidia system utility found at http://www.nvidia.com/object/sysutility_1.08.5.html (http://\"http://www.nvidia.com/object/sysutility_1.08.5.html\")
though I'm sure this has nothing to do with it.
I rebooted, and it worked great. Let me know if this works for you.... ehovindEmail Removed
