Default Windows SP3 upgrade
So I've been sticking with SP2 for the life of my computer now ( coming up on 1.5 years ) but it looks like ill finally have to upgrade to SP3 for GTA4 for the PC ( actually a listed requirement ). My question is, how is SP3? In general laymens terms what are the upgrades? Lastly and most importantly does it have more geniune vantage windows OS check hassles?

Default Re: Windows SP3 upgrade
There are over 1,000 hotfixes for XP SP3. No way to list them all. It is fine. I used it since it was a beta. Yes. All Windows have WGA. There is no getting around that anymore. It is in XP SP3 and all versions of Vista now.

XP SP3 Fix List - TheTechArea.com

There is a list of the updates.
