It's entirely up to you SinnerSaint, I've been happily using a SP3 upgraded PC at both home and work for a few months with no problems or issues with anything.

I had the experience that servicepacks only install well on newly installed systems, on systems full of crap SP2 sometimes gave me an unusable system

@Geeker, the installer only works when you haven't installed anything else. I don't call that working.

I spent 3 hours yesterday to fix an lsass.exe object not found error (SAM file broken) so I would advice to stop using windows or instal SP3 on a newly installed system.
