Hi,
I recently bought a SONY VAIO FZ104E Laptop which has a SATA harddisk. The Laptop came with Vista..When I tried to boot the Laptop using my original XP disk (which I purchase more than a year back), everything appeared to go fine until I got a screen saying that no internal harddisk found...I had to pay a bit and a "support guy" somehow got XP installed... I have yet to check if all drivers are working or not.
In the meanwhile, I googled and found out that the CD I had did not have the drivers for a SATA harddisk. Then I read about the "streamline" concept and would like to make a bootable CD/DVD/"streamlined CD/DVD" which will have:
1) XP SP2
2) All the patches that have been released since Xp's SP2 (which I am in the process of downloading using AutoPatcher), and
3) All the drivers that that I have downloaded for my Laptop from Sony's web site.
How do I go from here in order to make the "streamlined" DVD. Do I simply copy all the download patches and the drivers to some folder or ????? Somewhere I read about nLite or something but could not really figure out and am ending my writing this post/request.
Will be very much thankful for your help.
