Installing SP 3 did fix a minor problem that I had with XP

Sorry, I worded that poorly - what I meant was upgrading to SP3 is not a standard recommended fix for a broken computer. Certainly, if a needed file is corrupt, and SP3 included a new version of the file, it may correct a problem. But normally you should make sure your computer is working fine before major upgrades to ensure the upgrade is a success.
