So your options are either to get a real with SP1 DVD from Microsoft or your
OEM.
Forget trying to use dodgy third party products to kludge an SP1
slipstreamed disk (they obviously did not work for you) also the build you
produce will not be supported by anyone and may not be perfect as is again
proven by the tools inability to make a correct image.
Or perform a clean install with you none SP1 media and then add SP1.
