Slipstream Question

Hi Everybody,
I was wondering if anyone might know what is to be included with an sp2 patch. I am trying to slipstream a win xp sp1 pro with the sp2 patch to make a bootable cd so that I can get on my desktop which will not open with my retail win xpsp1 pro version. I am stuck for some reason at the bootup screen. It states that I need to hit F1 to continue and I have gotten the Keyboard is locked out unlock the key message and my keyboard will not work. I have a wireless logitech MX3200 and I have tried two different PS2 KB's all with the same result.
I am following the BartPE tutorial from ubcd4win.com/ and I am also looking at MSFN.org site reached via DriverPacks.net. I am trying to take my time and do it right. Well things are going according to teh site until I open WindowsXP-KB835935-SP2-ENU.exe (network install version). I looked at the dir and found that I had a laptop folder in the sp2 download. I'm not sure if this is just a standard part of the download or if it happened because I used my laptop to download and open the file. I don't know if I should just delete it or if I should put it in the slip and go on from there.
Any suggestions or help would be appreciated.
I hope everyone has a happy and safe holiday season.
thanks much,
cal

I have used AutoStreamer myself, and Halo's step-by-step is spot on! One note however; if you use the newest CDBurnerXP (version 4), you'll be required to install Microsoft's .NET Framework, version 2.0 or newer. If you already have it installed, then no big deal. (check Add/Remove Programs). If it's not installed and you don't want to install it for whatever reason, you can burn ISO images with a number of free utilities. Here's some links:
BurnAware http://www.majorgeeks.com/BurnAware_Free_Edition_d5839.html (my personal favorite!)
BurnAtOnce http://www.majorgeeks.com/burnatonce_d3992.html
Deep Burner http://www.majorgeeks.com/DeepBurner_Free_d4055.html
EASYBurning http://www.majorgeeks.com/EASY_Burning_d5392.html
Easy ISO http://www.majorgeeks.com/EasyISO_d2499.html
ImgBurn http://www.majorgeeks.com/ImgBurn_d4870.html (no list of ISO burning apps is complete without ImgBurn!)
... I could keep listing programs fo quite some time, but those above are more than enough choices. There's a bunch more in the Back Up downloads section here at Major Geeks. Another really cool ISO tool is called "ISO Recorder". It integrates into the Windows XP context menu (also called the Windows shell or the 'right-click menu') and when you right click on a folder or file or drive (like a CD drive with a disc in it), you can choose to create an ISO image from the target. Additionally, you can use ISO Recorder to burn an existing ISO image, or burn the image you just created. VERY convenient to have it in a right-click menu. Anyway, here's the link if anyone gives a :crap

I've probably just confused the situation by providing too many choices here If you have Nero, use it. If not, go with BurnAware or ImgBurn.... or.....

 

Nlite is another great integration utility
Nlite Guides etc available in many Languages

Beside MS, RyanVM has some great Addon's/Service packs plus + Check it out http://www.ryanvm.net/msfn/updatepack.html
