Its pretty simple...
I have a Magellan gps and I recently purchased a map update. I received a
dvd disc and tried to install it but the drive doesn't recognize it. I tried
a music cd and it recognized it fine. I tried the dvd in a laptop and it
recognized it fine. When I called the Magellan support line (not very
helpful) they said I had service pack 3 on my computer and this dvd needs
service pack 2. Doesn't make sense to me.

or you not have program in your SP3 which support format from
magellan.

See if your drive can read a different DVD (not a music CD).
I'd check the Magellan web site, as their support line wasn't helpful, but
presumably what they were saying was, "You need to have [at least] XP SP2;
you've got SP3, so that's fine." Anyway, service pack level has no bearing
on your drive's ability to read a data DVD.
