Hi- my friend has a nf7s and he is trying to install WinXP Professional (lol...agian) because he decided to raid his harddrives, and he doesn't have a floppy so he can't load his drivers. So I let him use my floppy...and it died in his computer. Then he tried 4 other floppy drives, and his comp killed them all ><

So essentially he has to load his drivers without a floppy...but windows xp install demands a floppy (we tried usb, but nothing)...

...so i'm wondering if it was possible to "slipstream" the drivers onto the CD....if we could, that would be much appreciated.

thanks

It's possible, did it myself and there's several threads somewhere in these forums on how to do it.

As well as here

This has been answered probably 10-20 times.

The short answer is Yes. The long answer is through a search at Microsoft, here, or in google.
