Intergrating SP3

Recommended Posts

Hello everyone.

I read once that SP3 requires SP2 to be integrated, but from what I see, nlite integrates SP3 on fresh XP with no problem.

So? Anybody can tell me, if I should inegrate SP2 first. (SP2 includes SP1, that's clear). But I am concerned about SP3, since it doesnt contain previous SPs..

regards.

SP3 is cumulative to the previous service packs and there is no prerequisite service pack when integrating. The SP1 prerequisite is for upgrading a Windows installation.

This question comes up a lot... is there a FAQ here somewhere?

You guys are forgetting something...

Microsoft has added a new feature in SP3 where the user is not forced to enter the serial key during the installation, so he could complete the installation and enter the key only after the installation reboot.

This feature is only available if you slipstream SP3 onto a SP1 or SP2 source.

This feature won't be available when slipstreaming onto a Gold Source.

Hope this gets spread.

Hmm, I was prompted for a serial. This on SP3 slipstreamed into an SP2 disk.
