XP-SP0 + SP3 Slipstreamed = "insert CD in drive a:" ?!?

[benifin]

Hi all

This is driving me nuts.

I have the same problem as here:-

http://www.msfn.org/board/nLite-WinXP-Pro-...re-t118598.html

I've gone to all the links posted there-in and there is no clear or obvious "fix" I can find.

I have:-

- Win XP PRO SP0 - Original RTM

- SP3

They Slipstreamed no problem.

I then "fully" strip XP SP3 - as I have with XP SP2 in the past wiht no problems.

All I leave is:-

- Calculator

- WordPad

- MultiProcessor Support

- Keyboard - US

- Language - US

- DirectX

- DirectX Diagnostic

- Command Line Tools

- FAT to NTFS

- VB5

- VB6

Everthing else is removed.

The above works fine with XP SP2 [ slipstreamed ].

Now ..... my Boot CD begins the Install process but then asks me to put the " SP2 CD in Drive A: " or words along those lines.

Can anyone please help ?

Is there something I have removed that has caused this ?

What is the fix ?

Many thx,

Ben

You are missing the CD ident files.

No need to make a new thread just copy the files.
