Both Windows Script 5.6 and MSXML 4.0 SP2 are available for Windows XP, but the HFSLIP tutorial for Windows XP doesn't mention these. Are they completely redundant on that OS?

If you need msxml4 for XP, follow the same directions for 2000 (I'll send some updates to FDV for updating). I'm not sure of the jscript update for xp though. A quicky check from a SP2 source has jscript at 5.6.0.8820, the jscript version inside the scripten.exe hotfix (the same as the one for IE6/2K) is 5.6.0.8825. Is this a recommended or critical update at this time? I haven't slipstreamed it with XP to verify functionality.

Do you have a link for the 5.6 jscript update? Remember, with the jscript updates, it's language and version dependant, so you'll have to get the one for your language and OS and version of IE. Be careful if slipstreaming the jscript update if it isn't for your OS and IE version. Applying the incorrect one will cause some problems with your source.

Thanks for the reply.

Windows Script 5.6 for Windows XP and Windows 2000

So,on which folder I have to put the jscript file to slipstream it ? HF folder ?

iirc XP has Windows Script 5.6 by default.

i know XP has Windows Script by default but, as Tommyp explained, there is a new version out: 5.6.0.8825 , while XP and SP2 have version 5.6.0.8820
