Hello everybody! I've been playing with Windows XP for a while now, but it is all way to confusing to me, and so I need some help.

First off, I want to know how I can inject any application into a Windows Xp installation. I don't want to have to configure switches and things, so is there any noob application I can use to slipstream apps into XP?

Next, I want to know the easiest way I can add drivers and hotfixes into XP. I also want to know the easiest way I can change my XP's cosmetics.

Any help would be appreciated. Thank you in advanced.


P.S. If anyone would like to help me create, or create for me, a custom Windows XP disk to my specs, that would be fantastic.

You will find everything you need to know, from basic installation modification to deeper-level app slipstreaming and customization of the OS in the MSFN unattended guide, also linked at the top of each and every page here.

That is true cluberti, but I find it fuzzy... I don't understand much of it.

That's because you need to unnoob yourself. It takes time and we can't do it for you.

I would suggest that you learn by trial and error. Otherwise, someone would have to do it for you (trust us, the unattended guide here is about as basic as you can get... so, you're gonna have to try and fail to learn ;)). I suggest using a VM (like Virtual PC 2007 or VirtualBox or VMWare Server) and making .iso's with your finished product(s) to test, before wasting media, if you're unsure of what you're doing.

Good luck.
