Guys,
I slipstreamed Windows XP Pro Retail version with SP3 yesterday, and when i install it, it asks for a key during installtion. So, I am not sure what MSFT thinks. I got the final SP3 from a torrent site and I believe it is the legitimate RTM final version.

Hopefully, someone else will confirm my findings or not. I will have to download the official SP3 from MSFT website after Apr 29th to see if I get the same result or not.

Does your OEM version needs a product key before SP3?

Slipstreamed XP Home OEM CAN be installed without product key.

so even after slip streaming and including the product key in it, it will ask you for the key?

Well, there plenty of references in the ISO that says “SP2″, that’s why I assume it may not be a Microsoft release. Well, we will know when the Microsoft’s filenames and size appears on MSDN.

The integrated SP1 ISO seems to be a legit leak from MSFT. It is not just an integrated version as if you compare it to an integrated version many more files have been updated/removed. It has all the signs of a Microsoft release.

I suspect that just VLK versions will not allow a blank product key.
