jroc & yoyo -thanks for your inputs - much appreciated - XP-Abuser and I have been working on this for a few days - well actually, XP-Abuser has been doing the work and I have been trying to be a good student
D ).
Just let me ask you this yoyo - I would prefer to burn just an XP-cd to start with and if that works, then I would be game enuf to try for the SP1 et.al cd.
So is it okay to just follow the "blue now"(noticed it yesterday
) tacktech link and omit everything having to do with SP1?? Will wait for your reply before doing anything.
<edited> yoyo - after reading thru the tacktech procedure again - I was wondering what the following "optional steps" are for / or do:
Optional Step 1: Rename or delete C:\XP\CD-ROOT\SUPPORT\TOOLS\deploy.cab.
Optional Step 2: Copy the downloaded xpsp1deploytools_en.cab to the folder C:\XP\CD-ROOT\SUPPORT\TOOLS\.
Optional Step 3: Rename xpsp1deploytools_en.cab to deploy.cab.
Would they need to be done if SP1 was not included? Perhaps the answer towhat are they for/do will answer that for me!
