I got the notice today that there was an update available for me to download, it was Service Pack 3. I guess MS released it as an update today....a bit early too, I thought it was coming out in June.
Oh well, just letting you know to expect it (if you don't already have it)

Aye, not much of a service pack in terms of new features, but at least you won't have to do a tun of updates after installing SP2. Just install SP3 and away you go! Take a look at this for anybody interested in the rundown of what SP3 contains: Paul Thurrott's SuperSite for Windows: Windows XP Service Pack 3 FAQ

I thought it was to come with IE7 and the latest version of WMP (11 I think). If such is not the case I'm glad, I hate that memory hog excuse for a media player that is WMP11, though IE7 wouldn't really bother me because I'd never use it anyway

Yeah I read about this release on fudzilla earlier. Doubt I will be installing it anytime soon though, I hardly use XP now.

yep slipstreamed my XP to SP3 all good

man, after i installed service pack 3 i got a blue screen.

If any of you guys would like to check my thread and help me fix it that would be super awesome.
