Thumbs down Windows xp service pack 3 issues

Hey is any one using windows XP sp3?

I had this sp3 on my system for a few weeks now and find it unstable
I have upgraded the sp3 to the latest build from windows but still does not work that well

I play game and the system keeps blue screening (BSOD) all the time, may be every one hour

Even if i leave the comp ON for few hours and leave the internet to download torrents , it would blue screen

Not sure that it is the sp3 as i did not have this issue with sp2

please post your experience

I've been using sp3 on my laptop, the version peior to the official relese, (Digit magazine, i think abt 2 months back)

so far my lapstops been working without any issues, even when i leave downlaods on or leave laptop on for days together.

Try uninstalling it and reinstalling

sp3 is no cracked version, it is avaliable at the microsoft site
i installed it and had problems with my anti virus it was not compatible with it

I guess i will stay away from it untill i get more reviews about it
