After having installed XP SP3 a few times now, I’ve noticed it adds a few new services.
Luckily they are all set to a manual startup, so they don’t seem to impact the system.
The new services are called:
- Wired Autoconfig
- Extensible Authentication Protocol Service
- Health Key and Certificate Management Service
- Network Access Protection Agent
Other than the new services, I’ve not noticed any problems installing SP3
