If uninstalling the beta software doesn't return the machine to its pre-data state, a "wipe & reload" is indeed necessary. Such are the risks of installing any beta software.

Uninstalling SP3 Beta prior to installing SP3 RTM addresses that behavior.

Found simplest way to remove was to do a bare metal reload.
Are there perhaps any other solutions out there?
Thanks!
