Sometimes they will go into safe mode, sometimes they won't. 
But that wouldn't help you in this case unless you can totally 
uninstall SP3 that way.  There are ways of removing it in 
MS-DOS, and running doing a restore from there as well.  But if 
it's the intelppm.sys problem you have, that involves a 
registry change and I don't think that can be done from DOS, 
but you could at least still remove it.  When I had the problem 
my PC (Intel) would finally boot after 5-10 times or so, but I 
don't know if that can also be the case with AMD platforms if 
theirs are caused by the intelppm.sys problem.

I only have one computer so if it won't boot after loading the 
SP3 I'm out
of luck. Will it boot into safe mode where I can get to the 
restore feature?
