Slipstreaming a Toshiba Install Application/Recovery Disk

Recently i posted this question. How do I slipstream Toshiba Recovery Disk (XP Home) with SP2, Windows Updates and other programs? I received a good reply however this does not solve my problem.

The reply showed this link: http://www.winsupersite.com/showcase/windowsxp_sp2_slipstream.asp

The link recommends using Windows XP CD-ROM. Toshiba has the WP Home program mixed with its own applications and drivers. so how can it be done? I do not have a pure Windows XP CD-ROM.

So how do i use the Toshiba Disk to slipstream Windows XP. with SP2 and updates?

thank you,

i understand copying all files onto my pc. but what files do i use/copy for windows xp home? it is on the toshiba install disk. is this called the OEM disk?

Robin Hickmott

Normally it will be an OEM disk.

If it has a I386 folder on it then it should be the Windows Installation Disk. N-Lite will tell you if its a valid install image when you tell it where to look for the files.

i cannot believe it... the toshiba oem disk has crc errors (cylic redundancy check); i tried to repair it with a freeward- CDCheck. it was not too successful; so i ordered a new CD from the company. so in about 10 days i will receive it.
