SP3 breaks handwriting recognition in Office 2003

[SKREECH]

I have some problems using handwriting recognition. I am on a Windows XP Pro system with Office 2003. I have checked the KB articles on how to install it and when I do a clean install of Office 2003, then it will work properly. But when I update Office 2003 to SP3 then it stops working. The writing pad option appears, bu when you click on it, no window appears. The drawing pad still works, including its window appearing. I have tried to uninstall and reinstall handwriting but that didnt work. Can anyone please help me out? Thanks.

Even I was having the same problem and to solve it I tookthe files from C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\INK from a system that had not been updated and copied them into the folder of the updated computer. It seems to be working fine now.
