/INTEGRATE Method
Of the manual methods, this is most likely one of the simplest. All we're going to do is execute the hotfixes we downloaded previously, and add the /INTEGRATE switch to them.
» Getting down to business
- Open up the Run dialog box.
- Click browse, and select your first hotfix file.
- Now click into the box, and type:
/integrate:C:\XPCD
Change C:\XPCD to the directory you copied your source to in Step 1.
- Click OK.
- When the process has finished, a box similar to this should
appear:
- Continue repeating these steps untill you have processed all the hotfixes you have downloaded.
» Automating this process via a batch file
This batch file will automatically slipstream hotfix EXEs into your XP SP2 source. Place all of the updates into the same folder as the batch.

And of course, replace C:\XPCD to where your source is.
