Microsoft has just added the Windows XP Service Pack 3 (release candidate) installer to their download website.
This Windows XP SP3 installer weighs around 336 MB and includes all patches, bug fixes and security updates ever released by Microsoft since the launch of Windows XP OS.
Nothing major introduced in XP SP3 but there’s a new activation scheme which will not require a product key during XP installation on a new machine.
And unlike XP SP1 or SP2, you can easily uninstall XP SP3 from your PC using the Add Remove programs module.

I just replaced my CD rom with a DVD one. I tried playing a DVD movie, I received the message: ” Windows Media Player cannot play this DVD because ther is a problem with digital copy protection between your DVD driver, decoder and video card, try installing and up dated driver for your video card. Where can I download an up dated driver. I have Windows XP. My computer is about 4 or 5 years old. Can you help me. Thanks.

I downloaded SP3 for my XP Prof. and ever since there has been a pop-up when I boot that says “To free up disk space, outlook express can compact messages. …” I do not want outlook express doing anything, and can’t get rid of the pop-up. Can you tell me how to get rid of the pop-up?
Thanks
