I installed the Vista BETA2 a few weeks ago. It seems nice, until I found out that version was buggy and 5456 was the way to go. The thing is, I have XP on my C drive, and then I installed Vista on my Drive E. It all works fine, but it's obviously created a boot menu etc, so how would I go about *safely* removing Windows Vista from my drive E?
Cheers
Alex

Download VistaBootPRO to help you edit Vista's boot menu. Once that is done, all you need to do is delete the applicable Windows Vista folder & related files on your E: drive.
BTW, aside from the little visual (folder) changes in 5456.5, I did not experience any performance difference between Beta2 & the allegedly less-buggier build (5456.5)

Thanks for that information. I wouldn't mind trying the 5456.5 build, as 5384 (?) seemed awfully slow to me. But maybe that's just because it's Beta, or my computer!
Thanks again
