Well guys, I am glad I can show you something new ) The Gateway CX2724 Convertible Notebook(bought it from BestBuy) uses a SATA RAID device, so my XP installation CD does not even recognize that there are drives attached to the machine. Of course the OEM cd that came with teh laptop has no problem reinstalling the system, but you know how it is, it erases everything on the system and loads a bunch of things I really, really, don't want. The slipstreaming idea seems very reasonable and appropriate. However, I can't say I know how to do it. Would you please give me some more information on that?


Thanks for the help.


P.S.: Sorry I was so slow to respond.
