Is there or will there be any kind of update packs that i can slipstream into my windows xp pro sp3 installation cd using nlite [or not] that would make it easier to keep my system up to date when i have to custom install my system?I know there is a very explicit 'no' answer to sp4; i'm just looking for the next biggest thing.It's a pain in the butt to have to install windows, then download all the .net stuff, silver light, hotfixes and the like from windows update and then slipstream into an installation using nlite so i can have the latest when i do re-install the os.i think microsofts plan is working however. i'm thinking of upgrading my xp system to vista sp2.thanks a mil.1 person needs an answerI do too

Hi,Unfortunately, there are no update packs that you can install to keep your computer up to date. The only option is to download and install any Updates or Hotfixes manuallyafter Service pack 3 as there will be no more service packs for XP.
