SP3 is SP2 with all the patches AND some enhancements... infact, SP3 is most likely more stable than SP2. Tongue

OO DAG 8.5 work with SP3 anyone?

Took me a while to iron out a couple of creases with SP3, but it's working now like a charm.

drummer?  What creases did you have with XP SP3?

I have noticed that FS FPS tanked, myself.  Went from 25ish to less than 12ish...Very disappointing...

A list of issues fixed by XP SP3

Here you are

I've had it for a while and have not had any problems. I haven't noticed too much of a difference in FS performance, however. But it has been running stable
