Windows Vista build 6003

Windows Vista build 6003 is an updated version of Windows Vista Service Pack 2.

This build number change allows its server counterpart to be serviced for the remainder of its lifecycle by pushing back the revision number, whilst keeping the overall version number unique.

It features a new version of the HAL driver which partially fixes the corruption bug that affects Intel CPUs based on Haswell and later microarchitectures, present in x64 versions of build 6002 and older.
