for ju.c



I am trying to do the slipstream disk.
The User Interface is asking for the location of the service pack I want to
slipstream.
Where the heck is it?
I went to microsoft and downloaded an .iso image for sp3 but that did not
work out either. When I tried to browse for that file in the UI it would only
take an executable file and there were no other file type choices in drop
down box.
Thanks....phal

It is a good decision. Ignore Pegasus' rant.

How do I get around the "newer version of windows error"?

You need to Slipstream a SP3 service pack into your existing
Windows CD in order to get around the error message.

Having the recovery console installed will give you no extra security
whatsoever - being able to boot off the CD gives you exactly the same
result. If you're really concerned about your installation becoming
inaccessible then you should create yourself a Bart PE boot CD. If gives you
full access to the hard disk and it even lets you run many programs.

I tried to install recovery console but got the error
Your version of Windows XP is newer thanVersion on disk.It told me to
remove
my service pack (SP3)
I did so and all leftover traces I could find of SP2 and still get the
error.
I tried to repair with windows pro disk (1st version no service packs)
and
got the same error.
How do I recover and install Recovery Console?
thanks..phal

Why bother installing the Recovery Console? You should need it only very
rarely, and you can boot into it directly from your Windows XP
installation
CD, regardless of your current service pack.
