    I was told that if you try to create an image of a computer with a Sysprep that was from SP2, we would run into many errors/problems.

    That being said, I have an XP SP3 cd and I went into Support\Tools and got the Deploy.CAB file so that we could get the Sysprep for SP3.  When I looked at the readme.txt and the word doc in folder, it has "Service Pack 2" in there with no mention of SP3.

    Am I grabbing the wrong Sysprep?  I also went to http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=673A1019-8E3E-4BE0-AC31-70DD21B5AFA7&displaylang=en to download this.  I didn't want to try sysprepping my machine if it has the wrong version and I really don't want to start over.
