Windows XP Service Pack 3 to Create an Integrated XP Setup Disk with SP 3
Note that there is only one space character -- between the "C:\XPSP3" and the rest of
the line. If you did not name the service pack "XPSP3.exe" and place it at the top level of
C: as I described earlier, you'll have to modify the command line accordingly.
The process will take some time to complete, so take a coffee break if you wish.
This completes the slipstreaming part of the tutorial. You will now need to burn it to make a
bootable CD or DVD.
Create and Burn Your New XP with Service Pack 3 CD
1. Download ImgBurn
If you have not downloaded ImgBurn, get it now and install it. You will find it listed on
thefreecountry.com's Free CD and DVD Burners and Copying Software page.
The version of ImgBurn I used to create this guide was 2.4.1.0.
2. Create the ImgBurn Project Configuration File
Open up Notepad, and copy the text from the box below (make sure you select
everything - click in the box and type Ctrl+A to select all) and paste it into a blank
Notepad window. Save the file as "xpsp3.ibb" (including the quotes, which you need to
prevent Notepad from adding a ".txt" extension to your filename) somewhere on your
desktop (or anywhere you like). Do not add or delete anything from the file.

3. Burn the CD
Put a blank CD or DVD into your drive.
Start ImgBurn. Select "Mode | Build" from the menu. That is, click the "Mode" menu, and
select the "Build" item on the menu that appears.
Then, select "File | Load Project". Look for the xpsp3.ibb file you saved in the previous
step, select it and click the "Open" button.
Finally, click the "Build" icon at the bottom of the window. To find out which picture the
"Build" button is (there are no visual cues, even as to which picture actually represents a
button), hover your mouse over the pictures near the bottom of the window and wait for
the tooltip to appear. When you hover your mouse over the correct picture, a tooltip will
appear with the text "Build".
If ImgBurn presents you with a dialog box giving you the statistics of your new CD, such
as the number of files it will contain and so forth, just click OK to accept it.
Congratulations. You have successfully created a new XP setup CD. This setup disk will allow
you to install Windows XP with Service Pack 3 already integrated in it.
