Problem upgrading to SP3?  
 
Microsoft will reportedly provide free support for any XP SP3 installation or compatibility issue. Users can reach support free-of-charge by telephone, e-mail or real-time chat.

The place to start is this XP SP3-specific page on Microsoft's Help and Support site.

Will XP SP3 be available at retail?  
 
No. Microsoft has confirmed that XP SP3 will not be shrink-wrapped for store shelves. According to a company spokesperson, Windows XP SP3 is available to OEMs as an option for some of their product lines (and) for Volume License customers to simplify maintenance of their Windows XP machines.

This means users will have to do an after-the-fact update to SP3 on any newly-purchased-and-installed copy of Windows XP.

Why the delay in SP3?  
 
The release has been delayed by a bug that affected users of Microsoft Dynamics Retail Management System (RMS), Microsoft's point of sale solution. The flaw caused RMS to lose or corrupt data when used on either Windows XP SP3 or Windows Vista SP1.

Microsoft now has a fix for the RMS bug, but hasn't yet put it into wide distribution. A support document noted that a hotfix is ready, but told RMS users to contact Microsoft for the patch. Meanwhile, a company spokeswoman said in an e-mail that Microsoft would make the fix generally available "over the next month." Until then, she continued, Microsoft is telling RMS customers not to install XP SP3.
