hello, i received a dell notebook pc with mce 2005 which did NOT come with a windows installation CD. there is a recovery partition of 8gB size out of 40gB hdd, so i like to reclaim the space but since i don't have any cd i like to slipstream from the i386 directory. what i have done is to create an iso image using nlite 1.06b, but i fased with few problems when i try to install it on my old desktop as a test. 1. during installation, serveral files were missing even though they were in *.cab files 2. after making cd with missing files, i ended up with a partial arabic or at least that's how it looked (more specifically wireless setup wizard, windows firewall, security center @ control panel & set program access & defaults) 2nd problem is the what i really like to fix as i cannot understand that language. it seems like dell used arabic version of sp2 instead of english version & i cannot overwrite with english version of sp2 as the installer complained about that it has been integrated can anyone suggest me how to fix these problems? thanks ps. i have a valid copy of oem version of winxp pro for my old desktop
