   Tip
You can keep your newly created slipstream Windows 7 SP1 installation DVD, bootable USB flash drive, or ISO file updated by doing this tutorial again with steps 7 and 12 to integrate any new Windows Updates released afterwards into it.

When you install Windows 7 SP1 using the slipstream Windows 7 SP1 DVD/ISO/USB created in this tutorial, you will be able to use the Windows 7 SP1 Disk Cleanup Tool (OPTION THREE at link) to delete the SP1 backup files.




That's it,
Shawn

Greetings. I am currently following this tutorial in order to create a Win7 64-bit All-In-One DVD with SP1 slipstreamed into it. However, I am lost at step 12H. This is the step where it says to select the priority level, re-build all images then hit commit.

The problem is this: nowhere in any of the steps, either before or after, does it say WHERE to find these settings. Step 11 tells you to click the ISO-Bootable tab and then go to Step 12F. Then, Step 12F immediately says to go to Step 12H (For an all-in-one ISO) with no other instructions, thus meaning at this point you would still be on the ISO-Bootable tab. But the settings referenced in Step 12H are not on the ISO-Bootable tab. In fact, I see further down that Step 12J again tells you to click the ISO-Bootable tab, which leads me to believe that either there is a step missing between Steps 11 and 12F, or Step 11 is supposed to tell you to click on something other than the ISO-Bootable tab.

Any assistance would be appreciated.

Hello Torindkfit,

The screenshots under the steps should help to find them.

Could you post some screenshots showing what you see instead at these steps to help see what the issue may be?

This works great, but I guess you need larger then 4.7GB DVD discs. It ran out of room during the burn using 4.7GB DVD media. Do I need to get the next size up (8.5GB) to make this work?

Hello Radman,

With as many new Windows Updates now, you may need to.

However, if you have a larger USB flash drive, that would work better for you and be more reliable. Plus, it would be easier to keep updated.

I just integrated SP1 with no updates and it was about 6.4GB. I have a Win7 SP1 disc and it is only 3.1GB. It must be compressed?

Ok, I have a question though. I have a Win7 SP1 disc and a Win7 w/o SP1 disc, both have there own codes. Can I just use the Win7 SP1 disc for two different installs, but use the different codes, one for one install and the other for another install both installs using the same Win7 SP1 disc? That way I do not need to do this at all and everything is legal.

If both product key numbers are for Windows 7 Home Premium edition, then yes you can use the same installation disc with both keys.

If not, then you would need to have separate installation discs per edition of Windows.

Thanks Brink, yes they both are Win7 Home Premium 64-bit. I was not sure I could do that, one (non-SP1) is branded Dell that I bought from a supply co. The other (SP1) I got on Newegg retail copy.

Yep, you sure can then. :)

Be sure that you use the product key number on the COA sticker from the Dell PC instead of the SLP key (volume). You will not be able to activate with the SLP key.

Just was reading about that, LOL. No problem, got it covered. I have to rebuild a machine, POS MB is giving me errors. Much better MB on the way and will have to reload Win7. Thanks for the help Brink.

You're most welcome Radman. Enjoy the new MB. :)

One issue though. OEM product keys are permanently tied to the motherboard that they were first activated on, and cannot be used to active on any other PC.

You may have to do a phone activation, wait for the activation operator, and explain your situation to see if they may activate it for you.

This tutorial is simply awesome! But one thing I would like to mention is that the RTLite software has got bugs and has the potential to crash and also takes a real lot of time even on i7 for the entire process. Though I did not have any problem and the process went successful but it did crash when it was cleaning things up at the end. Then I had to manually clean the garbage from the temp folders since the app couldn't. Otherwise the app's good and the ISO it created works pretty well.

Hello Sammy,

The tutorial was originally to slipstream SP1 before it was included, but this tutorial also shows you how to slipstream Windows Updates into an installation DVD or ISO as well. :)

Hey Brink, great guide friend! But one quick question, when I made the ISO and burned it to disc it's only showing me the Windows 7 Pro x64 edition but not the other versions even though I followed what your guide says. Any Idea why this is happening?
