How to create an install cd from a original cd and sp4 ?

I have a problem with installing Win2k (pro) on an 160GB
disk.

The problem lies in that the CD I have is a Sp1 (or some
such early release) and 48bit LBA is not supported by it.

Can I create a new CD if I have SP4 lying around on my
filesystem ?


On a not so related note, my motherboard has HighPoint374
raid support but when I try to use the driver disk when
installing win2k (f6 etc.) I always get an error when the
setup is loading the drivers :-(


Regards,
Ruprag

I can't say for sure whether or not slipstreaming SP4 will solve
your problem, but it certainly can't hurt to try. The instructions at
the link below have always worked for me.

Thank you for replying (sp?),

I now have a sp4 install cd of win2k.

It seems to work alright now after I partitioned the disk
and installed windows on a 99999MB partition and then
enabled 48bit LBA after I installed.

As for the Highpoint I already had tried 1.23 which is the
newest version :(
