RC1 reinstalls drivers after first reboot (Dell Inspiron 9300)

Hi everyone!

I'm having trouble with RC1 (5600) of Vista. I'm running the OS on a Dell
Inspiron 9300 (Pentium M 1,73 Ghz, 2 GB RAM, Nvidia Geforce 6800 Go 256 MB).
After the installation process everything works fine - the graphics, the
WLAN. When I connect to my home WLAN the first time, Vista updates
automatically with new drivers for the Intel 2200B/G-WLAN-Hardware and the
Sigmatel C-Audio-Chipset. After the update everything's running fine.

But after the first reboot everything's going down - the graphics adapter
isn't recognized, the WLAN- and Bluetooth-Adapters aren't working (Device
Manager says drivers couldn't be loaded), audio isn't working anymore.

I have a lot of experience with Beta 2 of Vista and everything was fine with
this version. But RC1 is causing much more trouble.

Any ideas what's going wrong with my installation?

Oh, by the way, Vista is installed besides Windows XP Pro SP2 in an own
partition with 40 GB of space.

Thanks for any advices!

F8 on Boot -> disable Digital Signature Check for Drivers. Then try drivers
again.

In the x64 version of vista I do not know if this is possible. In x86 the
"F8 Trick" works in such trouble sometimes.
