Windows 7 slipstreaming is not officially supported. You can use third party tools to accomplish the task. You can also do it yourself manually by unpacking the cab files, editing three text files, and using dism command to update the installation packages. Here's how to do that step by step:
Let's assume you stored the extracted service pack files in a folder called C:\\sp1. Create a new folder called C:\\offline, and note the location of install.wim which should be in the sources folder in your Windows 7 installation disc contents. Use the following commands (change folder names where necessary:DISM /Mount-Wim /WimFile:C:\\win7-contents\\sources\\install.wim /Index:1 /MountDir:C:\\offlineDISM /Image:C:\\offline /Add-Package /PackagePath:C:\\sp1DISM /Unmount-Wim /MountDir:C:\\offline /Commit
Windows 7 slipstreaming is not officially supported at this time. However, you can use a third-party program called RT7Lite to slipstream the service pack for you. Here are some step-by-step instructions.
The unseen changes in this service pack include improved reliability when connecting to HDMI audio devices, printing using the XPS Viewer, and restoring previous folders in Windows Explorer after restarting.
In order to make the improvements detailed in this document, various individual files and components have been updated. Also, the language-neutral design of Windows necessitates that the service pack be able to update any possible combination of the basic languages supported by Windows 7 with a single installer, so language files for the 36 basic languages will be included in the standalone installer.For System Administrators, there is a stand-alone installation package available, sizing 297 MB to 535 MB, depending on the system architecture.However, most home and small business users will receive SP1 through Windows Update. Windows Update utilizes an efficient transfer mechanism to download only the bytes that are needed, resulting in a download that will range in size from 23 MB to 51 MB depending on the system architecture.
Windows 7 Service pack 1 or SP1 contains all the Windows 7 updates released till date to keep your Windows PC up to date. Installing SP1 will help you prevent any security, functionality or compatibility related issues which you might be facing because of not having updated your Windows OS software.
I came across this problem yesterday and after troubleshooting it for afew hours (initially thought it was related to a language pack packageversioning issue) the eureka moment arrived, all thanks to reading thelogs on the client. First of all let me describe the issue, it was afairly standard task sequence to install Windows 7 Enterprise X86Service Pack 1 with Offline Language Packs and it was failing just after the setup windows and configmgr step (after the first reboot) during windows setup.
So what error did the customer see ? When they applied the language packoffline step, the Setup Windows and Configmgr step would restart thecomputer into Windows Setup and at this point shortly after, theinstallation would fail with the following error message
So I set about determining what was causing the actual issue. First of all I needed to rule out the unattend.xml file itself which is specified in the Apply Operating System Step (needed so that the offline language package variables values can be injected), by replacing it with a known good one, stragely though I got the same error, the language pack was failing to install and windows setup was failing.
The Microsoft .NET Framework 4.7.1 is a highly compatible in-place update to the Microsoft .NET Framework 4, 4.5, 4.5.1, 4.5.2, 4.6, 4.6.1, 4.6.2, and 4.7.The web installer is a small package that automatically determines and downloads only those components that apply to a particular platform. The web installer also installs the language pack that matches the language of the user's operating system.The offline package can be used when the web installer cannot be used because of lack of internet connectivity. The package is larger than the web installer and does not include the language packs.When you install this package, you can see that the following packages or updates were installed, depending on your operating system:
