I just slipstreamed all updates into xp and now i want to cfreate a dvd with all of my common apps. I do a lot of video encoding and would love to clean install whne needed and have all my fav apps installed. Can anyone provide me with a simple guide for doing this? I dont need a menu to choose the apps i want like in bart or pe. I just want them to all install. Sorry for my ignorance.

Check this guide http://unattended.msfn.org/ .

Thank you. Since I started coming here I have made a few custom installs and several switchless installers. Who would have thought it could be so easy... although there are still some troublesome apps (D%$n McAfee, Nero 7, Etc)
