Since you should have nothing to lose (installation of a pre-release
software should only be done on a system you are willing/able to format and
rebuild at a moments notice - virtual machines with a revert capability are
great for this) - uninstall the pre-release software (Windows XP SP3 Release
Candidate 2) and see if that remedies your issue (Control panel --> Add or
Remove Programs) - if not - revert back to the state you were in before the
service pack was installed in whatever way you usually do your test machines
and troubleshoot from there. (System Restore, imaging application, other
backup means, etc.)
