How to slipstream Windows XP SP2 with UltraISO?

This tutorial is a general guide which shows you slipstream Windows XP SP2 step by step with UltraISO.

UltraISO is an ISO CD/DVD image file creating/editing/converting tool and a bootable CD/DVD maker, it can directly edit the CD/DVD image file and extract files and folders from it, as well as directly make ISO files from your CD/DVD-ROM or hard disk. At the same time, you can maintain the ISO bootable information, thus creating your own bootable CD/DVDs. You now have the power to make and edit your own ISO files, and then burn them to CD/DVD for your own needs.

Step 1: Copying the Source Files

Insert your WindowsXP CD
If prompted, do not install WindowsXP
Create a directory on the hard drive and copy the entire contents of the CD to that directory. For example, use c:\winxp

Step 2: Download the Service Pack

Download the latest Service Pack from Microsoft's web site. This should be one large executable file named as WindowsXP-KB835935-SP2-ENU.exe.
Run the executable with a -x at the end. e.g. "WindowsXP-KB835935-SP2-ENU.exe -x" (no quotes)
It will first verify the integrity of the file.
Then you will be prompted for a location to extract the Service Pack. For the example, use c:\xp_sp2
Click on OK when the extraction is complete

Step 3: Performing the SlipStream

Given the previous examples, go to the c:\xp_sp2\i386\update directory
