So SP3 Release Candidate is out.


Recommended Posts

So there's various ways to get your hands on SP3. Like a registry key to confuse windows update.

Anybody give it a go? Or try to slipstream it into an install? I'd like to update to the latest and greatest.

To my knowledge, SP3 is not available to the general public, it's only available to MSDN and TechNet subscribers, as well as probably the OEMs, etc. So basically, the best way to get your hands on it would be to wait or to buy an MSDN or technet subscription.

The SP3 versions has leaked on the net and are not difficult to get a hold on. I've tried slipstreaming both 3180 and 3206 (?) in the same spirit as you, wanting to have the latest and best. My experience is, well, I haven't seen any definitive improvement, but on the other hand, there has been nothing negative that I could pinpoint directly to SP3. Windows _feels_ a little more responsive and faster, but this may just be because I want it to. ;)

Right now I am trying an "oldschool" nlited XP with sp2 plus latest fixes, to try and exclude SP3 as culprit for a few issues. If I find anything, I'll let you know.
