Here are some points that you need to keep in mind before installing Microsoft SharePoint 2010 on a computer with Beta release:

• Uninstall Beta
• Backup custom settings
• Create restore point

Uninstall Beta

Before starting with the installation of Microsoft SharePoint 2010 on a computer already preinstalled with the Beta release, users are recommended to uninstall the Beta version completely. This should be done so that all traces of preinstalled Beta release of the product will be cleared off and will facilitate a fresh install of the stable version without any errors.

Backup custom settings

Microsoft SharePoint 2010 can be customized in many ways. In case the Beta release of Microsoft SharePoint 2010 was customized, users are advised to create a backup of all custom file settings and configurations so as to restore those custom settings after the installation of the full version. This can be accomplished using Central Admin and STSADM (command line utility).

All users installing full version of Microsoft SharePoint 2010 on a system preinstalled with Beta release of the product are advised to create a restore point before starting with the installation. This should be always done as a precautionary measure so that even if some issues come up after the installation of the full version, system can be easily rolled back to the previous state.
