I want to integrate SP2 and SP1 onto the original WinXP CD so that I only
need to insert one disc and reboot once when setting up new machine. I
cannot find the KB article to do that. Does anyone have any idea how that
can be done? Please point me to the right KB if there is any.

Thanks

Regards

Harry,

Can you use the SP2 CD to slipstream into the original Windows XP CD with
the link you provided? Or do you have to download the SP2 file?

Yes. Just point to the file called XPSP2.exe that is in the root of the CD
or copy the file to the HD first if you only have one CD-Rom device.

You're welcome Darrell. BTW it likely is a bit faster to copy the XPSP2.exe
file to your HD even if you have 2 CD-Rom devices.
