You can just put them on a cd as you would normally put files on. I know you are thinking about having it automatically installed, but I think this would be the only way of doing it.

Nope, there currently isn't any way to slipstream anything except service packs. I'm hoping this will change. As Paul said, you can copy the files over and install from the CD. Another options would be to install Windows 2000, SP1, DX8, and IE6 then ghost the system. Otherwise, you're pretty much out of luck.

Well,

Around a month I guess somebody said, you can have a silent install in the background.
Any ideas?

Well,

I searched the forums and found my three month old post regarding DX8 Integration, which was replied by Dos Freak. He said "I will post tomorrow".

Dos Freak, please post it in here or in the Hardware Section under "Integrating DX8.."

Thanks

I read somewhere that you could integrate o2k with win2k so that they both installed together.

Anything new on this.

I need a reply from Dos Freak, who originally claimed it would work.
