You can always uninstall service packs.
Added on December 13, 2007, 1:57 amHmm.. I stopped IE 6 from crashing by replacing the new urlmon.dll with old dll. Hopefully the next update will be fine.

Can just use the DOT NET uxtheme patcher, no problem changing unsigned theme.
Installed on 3 computers.
First 3 computers, 2 laptop and a desktop, I updated everything in post-SP2 before i update SP3, everything is find and seems to run smoother than previously with SP2
Another laptop I directly update from SP2 to SP3, skipping post-SP2 update, then I check again Windows Update, all important update gone. IE7, WM11, DOT NET is not listed in Microsoft Update anymore.

Windows XP Service Pack 3 not include any major new features, but it include four minor new features that improve the system's reliability and security. Contrary to reports, Microsoft has been very up-front about these functional additions for quite some time now.
These new features include:
Network Access Protection compatibility. Announced years ago, this feature allows Windows XP machines to interact with the NAP feature in Windows Server 2008. This functionality is built into the RTM version of Windows Vista as well.
Product Key-less install option. As with Windows Vista, new XP with SP3 installs can proceed without entering a product key during Setup.
Kernel Mode Cryptographics Module. A new kernel module that "encapsulates several different cryptographic algorithms," according to Microsoft.
"Black hole" router detection algorithm. XP gains the ability to ignore network routers that incorrectly drop certain kinds of network packets. This, too, is a feature of Windows Vista.

I have been using it since 30 Dec 2007.
I did a clean installation by using the slipstreamed disc.
So far so good... It seems to be it is more responsive than SP2, compared for both after clean installation.

I believe the service pack "indeed" improved the performance of the Windows overall and also more effective handling of other applications, thus we see the speed improvements. As we can see, this will be the last service pack for Windows XP family. So far, it explorer.exe crashed once due to the Windows shell, ntoskrnl.exe. |

It's advisable to fully patch your SP2 before attempting to install SP3. You'll regret if you didn't do so.
Patches for SP2 will no longer work in SP3.

A: This is very easy to do. 1. Download the unlocked uxtheme.dll. Extract the file to the desktop. 2. Download Replacer. Extract Replacer to the desktop (create a folder called Replacer and extract the contents of the compressed file). 3. Run replacer.cmd. A black command prompt window should appear. 4. Browse to C:\Windows\system32 and find uxtheme.dll. Drag this file into the command prompt window. Press enter. 5. Drag in the unlocked uxtheme.dll from the desktop into the command prompt window. Press enter. 6. Confirm the replacement and wait for Replacer to finish. Press any key when prompted. 7. Reboot. |
