Hi, Tony,
What was the current version of MDAC when you tried to install SP3?
This is a known issue if you have an MDAC 2.6 Client or earlier. The current
work around is to change the registry key
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSSQLServer\Client\ConnectTo\DSQuery
to "DBNETLIB". After the setup is complete, you can change the value back.

Thanks.

Yi Mao
