How many MB's is xp sp3 in windows update?

Depends. Windows requires that you have SP1 installed and recommends you have SP2 installed, but SP2 it is not necessary, in order to install SP3. So if you have just SP1 installed you are going to get SP2 and all subsequent updates along with SP3. If you have SP2 installed the SP3 update is around 16.1 MB. If you have only SP1 installed the download will be as much as 57.5 MB. It all depends on what you already have installed. I suggest you install SP2 before installing SP3. I also suggest you let Automatic Updates install this at a time when you are not on the computer. If you are on Dial-Up, order SP3 CD from Microsoft.

Is windows xp pro sp1 the same as windows xp?

Yes and no... Windows XP came out with more then one version. The XP versions are Windows XP Home Edition, Windows XP Professional and Windows XP Home 64bit Windows XP Professional 64 bit, Windows XP Media Center. When they say SP1 that just mean that it has the Service Pack 1 updates installed. All three versions of XP can have SP1 but still are not the same operating system software. XP Home is a basic OS for simple tasks most users need the operating system to perform. XP Pro is a advanced OS that allows a used to configure the operating system to their requirements.
