koawmfot Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 you shouldn't have to.to build my dell oem cd's, i usually start with an SP0 retail or vlk cd to create the slipstream directory. then copy oembios*, pidgen, dpcdll, setupp.ini, eula.txt, and winnt.sif from any dell oem cd into the sp0 slipstream directory. then slipstream sp3 and build your iso.this way you don't get any of the extra dell oem bs.

Kelsenellenelvian Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 Yeah this slipstream process uses the current OS'es api and thus wrecks havok on a SP3 slipstream. You need to do it in XP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bledd Posted April 28, 2008 Author Share Posted April 28, 2008 so you should only slipstream xp from xp itself? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimmyZ Posted April 29, 2008 Share Posted April 29, 2008 i tried to slipstream sp3 into a dell xp professional, on xp sp2, and customized a few options using nlite, then it refuse my cd-key so i don't think slipstream on xp can solve the prob.

grdxyxy Posted May 4, 2008 Share Posted May 4, 2008 i tried to slipstream sp3 into a dell xp professional, on xp sp2, and customized a few options using nlite, then it refuse my cd-key so i don't think slipstream on xp can solve the prob.if u do this based on ur sp2 cd,replace pidgen.dll with the one in ur original sp2 cd.and koawmfot's method also works.
