More likely a problem with the 5744 installation. Did you remove all of the
items listed in the compat report?

How to remove all of the items listed in the compat report?

 

[Colin Barnhorst]

Like you would remove anything in XP. Use the compat report that you get
before the upgrade starts. While still in XP remove programs like antivirus
and antispyware programs and anything that is incompatible according to the
report. Find upgrades where the report notes that upgrades are needed or
remove if you cannot find such an upgrade. Go through the report and
prepare the system for upgrade. Then reboot and when Windows is back up
insert the Vista dvd again and start your upgrade.

If I were you I would not upgrade a beta release to the RTM. Do a clean
install.

I figured: "what the heck, I can always do a clean install later" so I
upgraded 6000 over 5744. No problems.

But you are careful about what apps you allow on your computers. For most
it appears to be garbage in, garbage out.
