Any issues with XP SP3?

JackhammerJohn · 05-10-08, 03:30 AM

It might be nothing, but SH3 faulted for the first time on me going into a mp game. The only difference is I upgraded to SP3 for XP two days ago. I tried a second time, but there are no other MP games around. Anyone having an issue with SP3 or is this a coindence?

I downloaded SP3 a few days ago and no problem so far with SH3 or 4, all my other games are working ok......so far.

Thanks for checking. Might be nothing.

maybe your windows firewall is blocking SH3 multiplayer mode... :hmm:

But SH3 SP runs fine with SP3 for me... I installed it about a week ago.

I've been running XP Service pack 3 since November.
(Yea, I get to test things for MicroSoft now and then.)
It's proven rock solid to me so far.

It has also been installed on the 4 other systems here
now that the Public release is out.

Installed fine on 5 machines at work, tried installing at home but rejected because I had modified the loading screen.

Restored my XP to normal, installed, rebooted and now get a message that the install failed and has rolled back. However, my computers details show that Service Pack 3 is in effect. Going to windows update shows that all is ok. Just keep getting the stupid message on startup.
