Well, applied XP3 and my XP would not boot. What a pita. Turns out to be
an issue with AMD processors and the quality of SP3's patching. Managed to
boot into safe mode and used another system to surf to find the answer.

Renaming intelppm.sys to intelppm.old fixed it for me. Fortunately I could
get to safe mode to do this.
Pass it on, SP3 does not appear to be AMD or Compaq friendly. Another
poorly tested piece of Microsoft software. Microsoft ought to pull this
ASAP and FIX IT. Or there will be a lot of crippled XP systems....AMD
sells a lot of CPUs.... as does HP/Compaq.
