Thumbs down

Of course, XP3 is not a cracked one and microsoft provides it for all XP2 user. However, I still prefer XP2 and XP3. I do not see much change and it slow down my computer too.

Downloaded and installed SP3 from Microsoft and its definitely more stable. I'd recommend you to format your windows drive and install a fresh genuine copy of windows.

I've been using Windows XP service pack 3. Its working fine. Its highly recommended that all XP users upgrade to SP3. It solves lots of security issues and other stuff.

As such SP3 does not bring in any new functionality or patches. Its merely a collection of all the patches made till date. So if u r having problems, it may just been waiting to happen or jus a coincidence.
