I would recommend waiting until it's released. That means staying away
from Beta and RC versions.

Service Pack 3 has not been released yet. What you are trying to
install is a test version of SP3, and unless you are doing it on a
extra computer, where you wouldn't mind if you lose *everything* on
it, you are playing with fire.

Stay away from test versions and wait for the official release.
