  Hi BSRC$, in stock

  1. You have security software installed on the computer?
  2. You receive an error message when you restart the computer?

  Reinstalling Windows XP to the factory setting would not be the first option.

  It is possible that some third-party programs or the services installed on the computer interfere with the installation of service pack 3.

  I suggest that you try to uninstall service pack 3 from the computer by using the recovery console and subsequently ask the article below for what to do before installing the service pack 3on the computer.
