1.  Make a folder on your hard drive called Win2000.  Copy the  i386 folder from your Windows 2000 installation CD to the Win2000 folder

Note: The following two steps assume you are working from the C drive.  Change the drive letters accordingly.

2.  From the Run command type c:\w2ksp3.exe /x.  When prompted type SP to create a folder in which to extract the files.  (The "x" switch will extract the files only)

3.  From the Run command type c:\sp\i386\update\update.exe -s:c:\Win2000.  (The "s" switch will integrate the service pack into your installation files.

4.  Install Windows 2000 from the Win2000\i386 directory. 

If you want to create a new installation CD with the SP3 build, rename the Win2000 folder to I386.  Create a new CD using all the files/folders on the original CD-ROM EXCEPT the I386 directory.  Use the newly renamed I386 directory in it's place.
