1 last question, im trying to make a slipstream disk for a whole new computer build. i have the above mentioned board and a amd3700+, 7800gt oc,2 gigs of muskin, creative audigy gamer,cable modem,winxp. i think that does it. i tried to read as much of these post as i can. ive got the sp2 and xp slipstream now i need to finish the rest of the nlite program. as in raid drivers, hotfixes and what else would you suggest to make this as quick and painless...lol?
