Extracting SP4

[tuco7]

I downloaded service pack 4 W2KSP4_en and I tried to extract it to a folder SP4 that I made, but when I click on the file it starts to extract without a option and goes to the install wizard.
I want to extract it so i can slipstream it into WIN2K to make a Win2K CD with SP4.
Anyone know how to do this?

Here are 2 ways of doing it:

1)

-Start the installation of the service pack
-When it is extracting, it will show you the path it's extracting the files to (after the verification)
- When the first prompt pops up and it is waiting for you to hit "Next", go and copy the entire folder to another one.
- The cancel the installation of service pack 4 and the original folder will get delete


2)

- Open with Winzip and extract the files. .. hehe yup, it's just a self-extracting zip file.
