eublade Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 hello, i am making a nlited windows xp pro cd and i have a question about service packsi read that it's better to slipstream sp3 into a rtm sourceand i always knew service packs were cumulativebut i've just made a couple tests and found files which arent updates by later sp's:files which are updates by SP1a but not later packs:mindex.dllmsisam11.dllmsuni11.dlloschoice.exewmidx.ocxwmmfilt.dllwmmres.dllwmmutil.dllwmpstub.exewmpvis.dllwmv8dmod.dllfiles that are updates by SP2 but not by SP3:guitrn_a.dllmigism_a.dllmigwiz_a.exemsrdp.cabmstsc.chmmstsc.exemstscax.dllrdsktpw.chmscript_a.dllsysmod_a.dlltscupgrd.exexptht41w.htmall of these are in XPCD\i386there are also few others, but they're not important (preinstalled ati drivers, and a couple of .inf whose compressed version is different)why are these files out of SP2 and SP3? are they not used anymore?thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

koden Posted September 3, 2008 Share Posted September 3, 2008 The nlite guide says that only slipstream the latest SP. But does they also mean SP3?So no SP2 slipstream? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin H Posted September 3, 2008 Share Posted September 3, 2008 Come on, guys...As you can read by doing a single 2 secs. google/forum search, then SP3, as well as all previous SP's are cumulative for slipstreaming(SP3 isn't cumulative for regular installs however, and needs SP1+), which then obviously means that the diffs aren't relevant, as else it wouldn't be cumulative anymore...

koden Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 sorry...my english is'nt that good...As I understand I have to slipstream SP1+ or SP2 first and then SP3 after this. I can't slipstream SP3 directly to my XPCD without one of the others??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Squeeto Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 I know it has been stated that you only need SP3.But, I just ran an app that doesn't know about SP3 and wants to find wmmfilt.dll (missing on SP3) before it continues.Eublade makes a good observation.

koden Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 So what did it mean......only SP3 has to be slipstreamed to the WIN XP?Or would something then be missing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mongo66 Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 lol. come on now... Don't make it difficult than it actually is...Just slipstream SP3 to an untouched Windows XP installation source (preferably SP0/RTM) and forget about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
