Streamline WindowsXP

Has anyone else done this? It's extremley simple.. If you format alot you will love this.. Someone mention it on a forum somewhere and I decided to lookup the term on google.

Basically it allows you to create a custom (and upto-date) install of windows XP so you don't have to install updates and customize windows after install.. It does it all when it's installing.. Saved me loads of time today installing win on 2 drives.

Take a look at this:

I installed WindowsXP /w SP2 and all the latest hotfixes, Media Player 10 and windows messenger 5.1, SATA drivers etc

got 2 cd´s 1 for my inet machine, just regular XP with SP2 etc.
Other 1 is for my gaming machine, all drivers, SLI, RAID, SATA etc.

Slipstreaming is a true invention that is a good 1 from a less good product

No you dont need a high speed con for it.
You make the CD on your own computer.

This page has detailed instructions on it.
I used that also for reference.
