    I have copied the contents of my Windows XP Professional Service Pack 1 OEM cd to my computer and now its a ISO file I have followed Paul Thurrott's tutorial on how to slipstream Service Pack 3 into the ISO file and did successfully. My Question is I tried this before but got please insert Windows XP Professional CD in the DVD drive or whatever it said. I realized I might not have put the right volume label for the cd. What should the correct Volume Label be for this Windows XP Professional Service Pack 1 OEM with Service Pack 3 slipstreamed be? I tried to look up the volume label online and think its this:

    GRTMPOEM_EN

    Is this correct? Thank you very much for your time and consideration on this problem of mine!

    I tried the ISO and it gets stuck on a windows product activation message when trying to get into windows? The error message is A problem has prevented windows from accurately checking the status of the license of this computer. TO proceed your copy of microsoft windows must be activated. DO you want to activate now? I say yes it stops loading windows and Im stuck at a blue screen (the color of the desktop when windows loads not a blue screen of death) and nothing happens! I have the product key for Microsoft windows XP Home Edition retail or oem. I got it with produkey before repairing my dad's Microsoft Windows Home Edition computer. I just dont know which one! Do you guys have a Windows XP Home Edition oem or retail ISO?
