First of all, I'd like to say thank you for this program. It's so comprehensive and streamlined, I don't think I'll ever install Windows without it again.

Recently, I've installed SP2 with nlite and everything went so smooth. My system settings were (mostly) preset according to my desired configuration (with only a few exceptions). Now, after hours and hours of games & software installation, visual style modding, and restoring media files from backups, I've discovered that some basic plug n' play drivers have been omitted, and now my system doesn't recognize my printer or my digital camera (I unchecked the boxes for Printers, Scanners and Cameras thinking that I would be able to install those drivers separately and specifically). I'm stuck. Nowhere is there standalone drivers for either item, and I can't figure out how to restore them from another (more complete) windows image. Is this even possible? If so, how would I re-integrate the PNP drivers with XP? I don't want to start over.

Thanks you guys!
