SheepyDaz Posted June 30, 2006 Share Posted June 30, 2006 (edited) ok i have a copy of windows xp pro sp1, an i have a copy of windows xp pro sp2. but they are slightly different....on the sp1 disk i can actually put it into the pc an boot from it then rearrange partitions, format an setup xp.but the sp2 disk i cannot, the only way i can get it to is install is by having an operating system already on the computer. but then if i choose a fresh install it still leaves the old operating system files there.my questions are how can i get the sp2 disk to do what the sp1 disk is doing? is there a program i can slipstream into the disk for it to do this?is there any files i can edit?thanks in advancedSheepy Edited June 30, 2006 by SheepyDaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mordac85 Posted June 30, 2006 Share Posted June 30, 2006 Going out on a limb I'd say the SP2 disc isn't an original, right? Sounds to me as if the data was just copied over and therefore you don't have the bootsector. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
