A "slipstreamed" Windows 2000 installation has been pre-patched with Service Pack 3, the latest Service Pack for Windows 2000.

By pre-patching the installation files, one can install Windows 2000 with the latest and greatest versions of all system files without having to install first and then patch later. You'll need at least a gigabyte of free space on a Windows PC to do this.
