 I restored files from original XP. It seems that it
replaced only one file - windows\system32\sqlunirl.dll
with original 2000.80.380 version of SQL Server. However
SP3 installs version 2000.80.728.0. I assumed that
right procedure is to Cancel message about XP files
restore and leave SP3 version of this file.

Thank you.
