Learn how to install Windows XP Service Pack 3 (SP3)

Learn how to install Windows XP Service Pack 3 (SP3)

Windows XP Service Pack 3 (SP3) is an important update that includes previously released security, performance, and stability updates for Windows XP.

How to get SP3

The recommended (and easiest) way to get SP3 is to turn on Automatic Updates, which can automatically download SP3 when it's available for your computer. You just need a few clicks to begin the installation and the rest of the process is automatic. If Automatic Updates isn't turned on, you can install SP3 by using Windows Update at the Windows website.
In order to install SP3, you must first have Windows XP Service Pack 1a (SP1a) or Service Pack 2 (SP2) installed. These are also available when you have Automatic Updates turned on. For more information about these and other Windows service packs, go to the Service Pack Center.
Note

Note

There's no SP3 for the 64-bit version of Windows XP. If you're running the 64-bit version of Windows XP with SP2, you have the latest service pack and will continue to be eligible for support and receive updates until April 8, 2014. To find out what version you're running, see Is my PC running the 32-bit or 64-bit version of Windows?

To learn if Windows XP SP3 is already installed

  • Click Start, right-click My Computer, and then click Properties.
    If Service Pack 3 is listed in the System section, SP3 is already installed on your computer and you don't need to follow the instructions below.

Before you install SP3, we recommend you do the following:
  • Log on to your computer using an administrator account, make sure all other users are logged off of the computer, and close all open programs.
  • Back up your important files to an external location, such as an external hard disk, DVD or CD, or USB flash drive. For more information, see "Backing up files and folders" in Help and Support Center.
  • If you're using a laptop computer, connect it to an AC electrical outlet and don't unplug or restart the computer during installation.
  • If you have a third-party wireless network adapter, make sure that the device is supported by Windows XP SP3. For more information, go to the device manufacturer's website.
  • If your computer is running Windows XP Professional, we recommend that you create an Automated System Recovery (ASR) set. This can help repair your system if the installation fails. For more information, see "To create an Automated System Recovery set using Backup" in Help and Support Center. (ASR isn't available for Windows XP Home Edition.)
  • Some antivirus software might prevent SP3 from installing, or might slow down the installation. You can try temporarily disabling your antivirus software. If you do so, be sure that you're aware of the risks involved, and be sure to enable it after the service pack is installed.
  • Make sure you have enough free disk space to install SP3 (even though much of that space will be reclaimed after the installation). If you need to create free disk space, see "Using Disk Cleanup" in Help and Support Center.
    Amount of free disk space required to install SP3 (estimated):
    Installation method
    Approximate free disk space required
    Windows Update
    1,840 MB
    Downloading SP3 from the Microsoft website
    1,500 MB
    Installing SP3 from a CD
    1,765 MB

If your computer is set to automatically install updates, you'll be prompted by Automatic Updates to install SP3. Follow the instructions on the screen. If you aren't prompted to install SP3, follow these steps:

To install SP3 using Windows Update

  1. Click Start, click All Programs, and then click Windows Update.
  2. Click Express (Recommended).
  3. If your computer is up to date, Windows XP SP3 will be one of the updates that is automatically selected. Click Install Updates. If your computer isn't up to date, Windows Update will offer some other updates that you have to install first. Install those, and then repeat steps 1 and 2 to obtain Windows XP SP3.
  4. Follow the instructions that appear on your screen.
  5. After the installation is complete, click Finish to restart your computer.
  6. If you disabled your antivirus software, enable it again.

If you have problems obtaining the service pack from Windows Update, you can download SP3 as a standalone installation package from the Microsoft Download Center website, and then install SP3 manually. The installation package is intended for IT professionals and developers, but you can still download and install this file.
You can also order a CD from Microsoft containing SP3. For more information, go to the Microsoft website.

To manually install SP3 using the standalone installation package or a CD

  1. Do one of the following:
    • If you downloaded SP3 from the website, to install it immediately, click Open or Run and follow the instructions on your screen. To install the program later, click Save and download the installation file to your computer. When you're ready to install the service pack, double-click the file.
    • If you're installing SP3 from the Service Pack 3 CD, insert the disc into your computer with your current version of Windows XP running, and the Software Update Installation Wizard should automatically appear. If this wizard doesn't appear, click Start, double-click My Computer, right-click your CD or DVD drive, and then click AutoPlay.
  2. On the Windows XP Service Pack 3 page, click Next.
  3. Follow the instructions that appear on your screen.
  4. After the installation is complete, click Finish to restart your computer.
  5. If you disabled your antivirus software, enable it again.

If you installed SP3 yourself, you can uninstall it. However, if your computer came with SP3 already installed (an integrated installation), it can't be uninstalled.

To uninstall SP3

  1. Click Start, and then click Control Panel.
  2. Click Add or Remove Programs, click Windows XP Service Pack 3, and then click Remove.
  3. Follow the instructions that appear on your screen.
Warning

Warning

If you choose to uninstall SP3, a dialog box displays a list of the programs that you installed after you installed SP3. If you continue, these programs might not work correctly.

  1. First of all I want to say great blog! I had a quick question in which I'd like to ask if you
    do not mind. I was interested to know how you
    center yourself and clear your head prior to writing.
    I have had a difficult time clearing my thoughts in getting my ideas out there.
    I truly do enjoy writing but it just seems like the
    first 10 to 15 minutes are usually lost simply just trying to figure out
    how to begin. Any ideas or tips? Many thanks!
