I have a Dell OEM XP Pro cd that came with my Dell computer when I purchased it. I want to make a ISO of it and then add Service Pack 1 to it and then remake the cd. I want to do this because in my Dell computer I have installed a 160gb drive, XP Pro pre-SP1 will not allow me to use the full 160gb partition and I do not want to partition it. I want to install XP Pro fresh OEM onto the drive

I know there was a turorial somewhere once on how to do that, and it is possible right?? So that when I install it from scratch it will automaticly be installing XP Pro with SP1 at that time. Thank you very much. :)

You may as well slipstream SP2 into it. Now I have never done this with an OEM version so there might or might not be problems: there shouldnt be cause all that is going to be different than a regular one is that there will be software & drivers that are specific to Dell. Anyway here is the link

If you need some help just post back here & ill help you.
