Before I jump in the lake with the rest of you, is anybody having any probs after installing SP3 in their PC? I have heard of issues with it from around the net. I heard also that the probs are with those PCs using illegal copies, of which mine aint. A little insight here before I put it in mine would be appreciated... Creekstar

No issues unless you have a AMD, if you do have a AMD make sure you download the patch before you try to install sp3 or you will have blue screens of death other than that. I have a computer up stairs that has sp3 and it work good. Just try it out if you dont like it then it comes with a uninstall tool, which you can uninstall it from the system
