May as well wait until August (i think) for SP1. In the meantime there's qchain. I'll make it easy for you, here's my qchain batch file for WinXP:

@echo off

echo.

echo Please select NO if a popup box asks to reboot.

It includes all critical updates, and all the recommended updates except the .NET framework. My system runs very stable with all of these. Remove any you don't want.

 

Put this batch file and qchain.exe in a folder. In that folder create a subfolder called hotfix. In the hotfix folder place all the hotfixes. Make sure to remove any references in the batch file to hotfixes you don't have or don't want.

I'd only go through that much trouble if you are deploying windows xp in a corporate environment.

 

Otherwise wait for SP1 to come out then incorporate it into the installation.

Just sub XP stuff in there to do it

Also apply each hotfix from earliest to latest for best results!
