I may be trying my onboard realtek hd audio as recently my xifi seems to be buggy woth poor sound quality and the creative software is bloated too heavy.

Oh, Volume Licensing Key. Interesting, i have a site license key that i normally use, so this may effect me pretty badly. Wonder if my old Pro key is still around somewhere...
Out of interest, why would they be affected at all?

Reading up on it, seems you have to fool nlite or XPslipper into thinking it's running on XP for t to work properly, how sad.
Now i have wasted a CD that i know will not work

Ok, this gets more and more interesting, i slipstreamed SP3 using the old kbname.exe -x switch and then running the windows way of integrating into a normal extracted ISO image, as detailed here:
http://apcmag.com/how_to_create_a_bo..._xp_sp3_cd.htm just using nlite to create the bootable ISO and label for the CD.
Wonder if it will work :S
I can host the ISO if someone wants to test it... OR, i can VMWARE it
