Its not just me. I found some one else with the exact same problem at http://www.tek-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid...6715&page=2

I am using nLite 1.4.6 which is supposed to fix XP SP3 issues. I hate to abandon service pack slipstreaming using nLite. It looks like a great tool to simplify our new hardware builds. But does anyone have a solution to this issue?

i think there is a commandline switch to slipstream sp3 with xp.

there is one for ordinary uppdates, it should be the same

example: updatefile.exe -s:<path to xp-cd files>

maybe that will work

Yep.  Here are two websites with a couple ways of slipstreaming by command line.  No doubt Google would find dozens more.

'-s' is the argument for old version of update.exe. Microsoft do not allow you to run update.exe directly for new hotfixes/updates. You'll have to run the integrate argument directly from the hotfix/update download.

WindowsXP-KB936929-SP3-x86-ENU.exe /integrate:<XP source path>

I don't know if nLite use the same method. Even though i use nLite but i don't 'trust' the built-in slipsteam funciton so I do it manually.

Yes, I know about /integrate. I was hoping nLite would take care of this, but I no longer trust it, and also will need to do it "manually" using /integrate.
