Ok for now It's somewhat early, but for the reg is it possible to slipstream Drivers so they install along the Patched WinXP?
NLite or whatever?

Yes it is.

The idea is to not only to include the drivers on the CD image, but ALSO to register the included drivers in the Windows Setup files. Otherwise Windows Setup doesn't include them in the install process!

During the installation process Windows Setup will detect the computer's hardware and look for drivers.. and install the drivers only if they match the detected hardware.

Unconfirmed if they work or not...
