dailyapps.net — If you have read my previous Hack Attack on How you can download Windows Vista SP1 through a Hack and it worked for you then here is another Hack that will allow you to download Windows XP SP3 RC1 directly from Microsoft. Windows XP SP3 will be the final service pack that we will see for the World’s biggest Operating System from Microsoft.

I downloaded this very RC and installed it on a fresh install of XP. The first problem I encountered was not being able to install the driver for my sound card, claiming it wasn't compatible with my system (I've installed it dozens of times with SP2). Secondly, when I installed µTorrent , my system completely froze. I formatted and went back to SP2. It may be a release candidate but it certainly has some bugs that need to be ironed out.

Well if the speed increase is true (and it sounds like it is from what I've read elsewhere) it's hard to resist installing the unfinished version since any speed increase at no cost is always welcome. But as someone else has commented (quite rightly) you'll only have to remove it (if you can!) to install the finished version anyway, and that's a hassle I can do without so I'll wait.
