[SOLVED] XP Pro: Enable complex script support without SP3 media?

stuartnz · 12-31-2008, 11:50 PM

I am running XP Pro, and last month I paid a local tech to format and reinstall for me, because I wanted to save time on the reinstall. My OEM CD is only SP2, and the tech had SP3 slipstreamed on a CD. The installation went without any problems, but now I can't enable Indic language support because the installation process keeps asking for the SP3 CD and I don't have it. How can I enable Indic language support without the SP3 installation media? I asked this at the Microsoft newsgroups and was told that I needed to slipstream a CD myself. Is this the only way?

I did end up slipstreaming SP3 after all.
