Service Pack 2 Install Skipping Files

I am trying to build an automation process to deploy XPSP2 to our network.
The problem is that all of our custom images have a very stripped down image
with things like outlook express and movie maker completely uninstalled.
Trying to do a standard install of xpsp2 errors out looking for file
"wabmig.exe" which I assume is part of the outlook express windows address
book. I need to get the regular install working before I can build the script
to due silent install and not interfere with users. I also get similar errors
about files like "mm2res2.dl" which is part of movie maker. I have seen
sections of update.inf file located in the same directory as update.exe of
the i386 folder and there are parts of it where I guess I could remove like
"CopyFiles=OE.Files"....

XPSP2 will not start at all now, because it cannot verify the integrity of
undate.inf

Can anyone help?
 
A Service Pack will not install properly on a
"stripped down version" of Windows XP. If you
wish to deny access to certain XP programs, then
use Group Policy rather than attempting to "gut"
the operating system.

To add to Carey's post - this has nothing to do with Security - you'd been
better to post in the Setup and Deployment newsgroup, as this is what you
are trying to do.
