Windows SlipStreaming Guide
 

One of our members at PC Apex has posted a new basic guide for "SlipStreaming" your windows install disk. "What is SlipStreaming", you ask? SlipStreaming allows you to update/customize your windows install disk by including service packs, drivers, programs and even custom settings you would normally apply after a default windows install. As you can imagine, this can be a huge time & trouble saver! Need to Hit F6 to provide RAID drivers via floppy disk but you kicked that old floppy format to the curb years ago (like I did)? NO PROBLEM! You can SlipStream your RAID drivers into the install disk and never need a floppy again! Here is a snip from the guide:
