Vista Service Pack 2 RC

[JS]

Had from before a new full installation of Vista Home Premium SP1 64bit
original DVD, Registered and Genuine. The hard drive was new / empty.

Downloaded the ISO file for Vista SP2 Multilanguage.
It shows as "KB948465" Under Installed Updates.

Bottom right on Desktop says now:
Windows Vista (TM)
Evaluation Version. Build 6002

Checking with Winver.exe:
(Build 6002: Service Pack 2, v.286)
Evalueringsversjon.Utløper 02.04.2010 00:59

The solution for Microsoft that more REBOOT resolve this, do not work for me.
Also tried uninstalling SP2 and got the "evaluation" to disappear.
Installed Hotfix KB958690 and then again the same version of SP2.
This did not work either. The same evaluation version comes up again.

Will this be directed, when the final version of SP2 comes out?

Vista SP2 is still not RTM yet, and until it is, you will get the
'evaluation' version showing.

Does this mean we are going to have to reinstall Vista completely when SP2 is
released? I installed the SP2 RC of Vista from MSDN as a clean install.
