How did you try to install SP3? Did you download the whole pack manually or did you try to install it via Windows Update? If you use Windows Update, it should tell you if SP3 can install on your machine or not, because it checks for SP3-incompatible drivers installed on your system. This way you can find out if you need to update some driver.On the other hand, your problem might be the Windows Update itself. Many folks reported problems installing SP3 via Windows Update, whereas a manual install of SP3 went flawlessly.
