first tip, i think i know what the problem is - maybe cuz the winnt32.exe isn't opening?

i'm trying to excute it, but it keep saying

i'm working with xp pro + sp2, and i'm trying to install (on VM) win xp pro + sp2 slipstremed

Exactly, it wont work because your using Winnt32.exe and that's not a native dos file, you have to open Winnt.exe to install from a dos partition, unless your running WinPE, BartPE or the like first to install it. HTH.

Is the latest Service Pack slip-streamed?

What other hotfixes are you having installed?

Have you tried to save space on CD by deleting the unnecessary folders in I386?
