johndoe74 Posted June 22, 2008 Share Posted June 22, 2008 (edited) each service pack is cumulative, i.e., includes all the fixes from all prior service packs so u just need to slipstream the latest one (sp3) directly into your windows whether its xp gold (sp0), sp1 or sp2 Edited June 22, 2008 by johndoe74 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cluberti Posted June 22, 2008 Share Posted June 22, 2008 The only caveat is that if you slipstream into an SP0 (RTM, gold, etc) source, you HAVE to enter a product key during install. If you slipstream into an SP1 or SP2 source, you will get the option to not input a product key during setup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
