in http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloa...1/hfdeploy.mspx

it says

Using Qchain.exe

Windows XP SP1 and all post-SP1 hotfixes have Qchain.exe functionality built in. You can install SP1, and then install any number of post-SP1 hotfixes without having to restart the computer in between.

Otherwise, yes it's needed.

As a bit tighter rule, my understanding was that anything released before March 2003 has the potential to need QCHAIN. To be safe, I always interpreted that to mean anything that is not Windows XP Service Pack 2 just to be on the safe side, since Windows XP Service Pack 1 was released on September 9, 2002.
