Sp3

Has anyone tried it yet? I see it's out. Not as much hype about SP3 compared to SP2....

It's just a group of hotfixes released since SP2 was made. Nothing big, nothing small.

I have it on my everyday rig, and I can't see a difference ... but I just did a customer's new install of WinXP Pro and there was a HUGE difference in the updates ... meaning it was very small because of the Service Pack having all of the previous updates ... now that was a time saver!! :thumb:

It's taking a hell of a long time to install this. Then again I have everything open and I'm only running an E6600.

I always find SPs work better when integrated into the XP disc...

Still though, SP3 made my laptop run a bit quicker.

I've installed SP3 into half of the total computer at mu mum's office, and so far there had been no complains, and there is no difference in neither speed or the responsiveness of the computer.

So yeah, no harm to install SP3, but dont expect too much from it lol ;)

I see no difference. I'm a little surprized that I passed the cdkey check LOL I mean what shh.

Well, that proves that Vista is just as capable as XP in gaming. Hopefully we can move on from this point now.
