Is there a way to edit the SP# displayed by "my computer" just for appearances sake without creating compatibility issues? No. But you can use some other field.

ImWolf Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 I have 2 machines currently running a version of the SP4 update. On my office machine I already had a SP3 install, so I simply double clicked the USP4-v3.1b-x86-ENU.exe file to update. On a separate machine I was doing a fresh install, so I slipstreamed this file into the installation files (of XP Pro SP3), and then used "Slipstream.bat" to update those install files again with the "PostSP4-May19" package. Soon, I will be replacing the MB on my office machine, so I will need to do a complete re-install of XP. I have been attempting to create the install ISO with nLite once again, but for some reason I am not able to integrate the May19 updates as I have done in the past. I have created a directory for the install files, and then used nLite to add the USP4-v3.1b service pack, and this seems to work just fine. However, after I extract the zip and use "slipstream.bat" to modify this install directory then nLite will no longer open the files for further use. At this point, nLite throws a dialog box at me saying "Unhandled exception has occured..... Length cannot be less than zero..... Parameter name:length" I tried using the "slipstream.bat" routine both while nLite was still active and had just updated the Service Pack, and after shutting nLite down. I have tried this on both machines (currently running XP SP4) with the same results. Last night I D/L again the newest package from Harkaz Google drive. The package includes a new file called "WindowsXP-SP4EOS-Rollup.exe", and extracts into a directory named "Update Rollup for Live Installations". There is no "readme" file included, so I'm not sure if this exe file should be slipstreamed into the installation files using nLite, or if it is intended to be run as a stand alone update after the setup (with USP4-v3.1b only). This latest "Rollup" is stamped Dec. 26, 2019. Any suggestions? Thanks, Wolf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you patch the files before creating the ISO, the ISO gets made but it freezes during install. When I try the single EXE after just SP4, it freezes on reboot as well. Seems others have had this problem, too: https://ryanvm.net/forum/viewtopic.php?p=157225#p157225 There seems to be a reference that the "Christmas update" fixes it but I only see a May 2019 download not a December 2019 one.

InterLinked Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 Here's my final rundown, with notes: Seems like everything installed! I did a brief random sampling trying to hit all the bases and it seems they are all there in Add/Remove Programs +Show Updates. Beats me why nLite was incapable of making it work. It literally errored out on all of them. DISM isn't in XP so I'm not sure how else to slipstream these post-SP4 updates. Waiting for an SP5, hopefully...

InterLinked Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 This is for users who have installed the unofficial SP4, but NOT the post-SP4 update pack because it does NOT work. Until there's an SP4 or the update pack is re-released without bugs, we are on our own after SP4. I compiled this after looking through all the purported post-SP4 update pack updates and running my own update scripts. All the update packs are missing the WannaCry update for some reason, so I threw that in obviously for the sake of completeness. So, I guess the post-SP4 update pack was incomplete to begin with - here is the list of all updates needed after SP4 (should be, but I could be missing something, too... please let me know if so) No reg patch needed to install POS updates. Just use a batch script to install everything and reboot. Hoping there's a good way to slipstream this but for an online update this isn't terrible...

jack980517 Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 (edited) I installed XP Pro with SP3, and then ran the SP4 v3.1b installer, the Post-SP4 Update Rollup, and then the MUI pack, in this order. I followed the readme in the MUI pack exactly. The translations are incomplete. ("Hardware" and "Remote" in the first picture, and the name of the file types in the second) This didn't happen when I used stock SP3 and stock MUI packs, so I guess it's because of the updated files in SP4. How to fix it? PS: this installation is still in "testing" phase, so I'm willing to re-install the whole OS, if necessary.

lan vuhoang Posted June 26, 2021 Share Posted June 26, 2021 (edited) Did SP4 automatically disable the "Windows XP End of Support is on April 8th, 2014" message? Also, could you make the System Properties says "Version 2019" or something when the Post-SP4 Update Rollup is installed? Guess this is now the only way to get a fully updated version of Windows XP post-install now that the SHA-1 update servers for XP go down. And what updates are included in this exactly?

beansmuggler Posted June 27, 2021 Share Posted June 27, 2021 Is there any way to test for when you have all possible updates installed? I just finished the post-SP4 update and I really can't tell if I'm done. I feel like I even have less .NET 4 updates than I did before after finishing the step to uninstall and reinstall them... plus I feel like I remember many a time where, after installing SP3, my system would still get some updates from SP2 and earlier from Windows Update as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beansmuggler Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 I just reinstalled from fresh using their rule of Starting from SP2 > get SP3 > Get SP4 with no .NET > get post-SP4 > install .NET from Add/Remove Programs in Control Panel and I don't have any 1.1 and 4.0 listen in my list of programs, even though the installer shows a check mark beside 1.1 and 4.0. I have a freezing-after-login issue when a certain program is installed on this computer, but I'm trying to make sure that it's not because of SP4 taking from 1.1 and 4.0.
