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