Win XP + SP1 -> Boot CD
« on: September 23, 2002, 08:42:46 AM »
I cant find how to do this anywhere, When I read the instructions from microsoft regarding the advanced setup to service pack 1, it told me how to install win xp integrated with service pack1 onto a network computer. The procedure is as follows:

Copy all windows xp files off the disk on to folder A

run dos command to extract all files out of sp1.exe to folder A, updating original files

Run setup to install windows xp inegrated with sp1 onto any network computer


With folder A, i burned it to a disc in the smae format as the original windows xp disc I have. It works fine. My question is how do I burn that disc, but make it a BOOTUP disc, so that I can install winxp+sp1 onto a fresh formatted harddrive.

If anyone knows how to make a bootup windowsxp+sp1 cd, plz tell me

go get IsoBuster, find the bootsection, extract the bootsector to a file, use nero to create bootcd, use no-emulation, point to the extracted xp bootsector  file, put the updated i386 folder on the cd - then burn and install xp+sp1 booting from the new cd
