XP SP2 deployment

Hi,

Is there anyway to preconfigure the installation of SP2 to selectively turn
on/off individual components of the default SP2 install?

For example: lets say I don't want DEP to be installed and turned on as
default because I've previously identifed compatability issues with some
software in my production environment. Because of this, ideally I would like
to have this feature switched off when pushing out the install to the
desktops. is this possible?

I know the firewall can be configured through group policies, I'm looking
for similar config tools for the other components that get installed as part
of SP2 with a view to turning them off as part of the install.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Steve
