slipstreamed sp2?

I just slipstreamed sp2 into xp and burned a cd....wasn't as hard as I thought!

My question is...Do I have to do this for each xp cd I have? I have 3 copys

Or can I just use the one I have and when (if ) I do a clean (fresh) install on any of the three pc's I have and just enter in the product code that matches that pc?

I burned the cd off my copy of xp but I am wondering if I have to do a format and install on my daughters pc's can I use this cd and put in there product codes?

Unless they are OEM CDs from Dell or other brandname (the ones that say To be used with Dell only) you should be fine with just one CD and enter different product keys when prompted to.

If all 3 CD's are the same type, you will be fine. If one is generic OEM, one an upgrade, and one retail full, then you may have a problem. Of course, if you have a mixture of Home and Pro, those must be separate.
