OS Re-install Tips?
f0dder:
Oh, with XP you can create a slipstream CD from a live install, rather than an ISO image? didn't know that, and don't know of a workaround for Vista.
CleverCat:
Have you tried Nlite? is a program that can help you put drivers, updates and hotfixes into a Windows XP installation disc. It can save lot's of installation time if used corectly.

I did a slipstreamed CD install last time using http://www.ryanvm.net/msfn/
It worked great and I didn't have to spend hours updating XP!
Takes a bit of learning but it's not Brain Surgery... :D

Just in case: I think you need an XP SP2 install disk for that
There was a download link for an XP SP3 iso somewhere here a while back - I dont know could one use that?
You can download a full ISO version of Windows XP SP3 Pro and Home.
See http://www.tipandtrick.net/2008/download-unmodified-original-windows-xp-with-sp3-integrated-full-retail-and-vl-install-cd-iso-image-from-msdntechnet-plus-via-http-or-torrent/
which has all the full ISO versions (and the links are to the Microsoft download site so they are safe - sorry I take that back all the links have now changed and they are at various other sites including torrents. The original checksums are given though so you can check the download is the original unaltered MS ISO file).
There is another thread with other references to SP3 downloads at https://www.donationcoder.com/forum/index.php?topic=12466.0

Nice tutorial here:- http://integrator.siginetsoftware.com/index.php?manual
CleverCat:
Isn't SP3 an updated SP2?
Then you'd first need a CD with SP3 integrated?
