John,
I was able to successfully uninstall beta 2 using this un-install tool:
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=47598
I think I'd try running this took, then check in Add Remove Program that you
don't see any SQL or NETCF or device emulator after running the tool - if
you do, remove them manually. Then try reinstalling RC. Hopefully this will
work, but I have one computer with an old beta 1 installation on it that I'm
unable to install a newer build on and will need to rebuild the machine.
Please let us know if this works or not.
