You cannot use the /integrate switch to integrate Windows XP Service Pack 2 into a folder with Windows XP on a computer that is running Windows 2000 (889719)



The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Windows 2000 Advanced Server
  • Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional
  • Microsoft Windows 2000 Server

SYMPTOMS

On a computer that is running Microsoft Windows 2000, you cannot use the /integrate switch to integrate Microsoft Windows XP Service Pack 2 (SP2) into a folder that contains the files and folders from a Windows XP product CD.

Note Integrating a service pack into another set of files that you want to install is known as slipstreaming. Installing software from a copy on a hard disk drive instead of from the product CD is known as a flat installation.

WORKAROUND

To work around this issue, change the name of the Setupapi.dll file in Windows XP SP2 to Setupapi.old. Then, use the /integrate switch to slipstream Windows XP SP2 into Windows XP. To do this, follow these steps:
  1. Copy the contents of the Microsoft Windows XP product CD to the C:\Bin folder.
  2. Visit the following Microsoft Web site, and then save Windows XP SP2 in a folder on the computer that is running Windows 2000:
  3. Start a command prompt. To do this, click Start, click Run, type cmd, and then click OK.
  4. Change folders to the folder where you saved Windows XP SP2.
  5. Type the following command, and then press ENTER:

    WindowsXP-KB835935-SP2-ENU.exe /x

  6. Type the path of the folder where you want to extract Windows XP SP2. Then, click OK.
  7. Change folders to the folder where you extracted Windows XP SP2.
  8. Type the following commands, and then press ENTER after each command:

    cd i386\update

    ren setupapi.dll setupapi.old

    update.exe /integrate:c:\bin
