[Answer]VISTA Beta SP2

Question：Checked on my connection page for information, on this so I'll post here.

Installed VISTA SP2 awhile back and am wondering if it ever finised the beta stage.  My desktop still states I have an evaluation copy build 6002.

Thanks,

Removing the prerelease version of SP2

The prerelease version of SP2 is time-limited software. You must remove the prerelease version of the service pack before you install the final version of the service pack. Also, this software will no longer operate after May 1, 2010. You must remove the prerelease version of SP2 before that date.

To remove the prerelease version of SP2 for Windows Vista and for Windows Server 2008, follow these steps:
