To expand on that a little, for some years now Windows XP updates have included
technology that allows them to be automatically retained or reapplied (as
necessary) when a service pack is being installed. There may be a few updates
that only apply to SP3 and not SP2, so be sure to check Windows Update anyway,
but there shouldn't be a huge number.
