this is to address issues where MS has kick us to the curb. they have stop support and effort to add sp3 to a xp disc as a fresh install. this sucks because we bought this disc in 2005 yet they continue support for an xp disc that came out in 2001-2.

to do this you need nlite and wmp11 slipstreamer an mce addon pack (thanks to orbit30 for this) and a copy of regular xp home and pro.
it won't work with mce


Windows Media Player 11 Slipstreamer
nLite - Deployment Tool for the bootable Unattended Windows installation

4.8 untouched Add on pack

I made a disc with the new add on pack. it's slick and easier to do.

but it doesn't install to all machines. I install it fine on 1 machine and got the bsod on another during install. this seem to be an issue with other people so I won't necessarily say to use the new add on
