ricktendo64 made a easy 5744 Sidebar and VAIO Installer for XP.
Install Instruction:
- 1st Download, Extract and Install "Extras.exe" (Fonts & C++)

NOTE
* The Installer adds the C:\VAIO "Enviroment Variable" and Registers "VAIOext"(Shell Extension).
* Rebooting will register sbdrop.dll, wlsrvc.dll and sidebar.exe on Login, "Silently" using RunOnceEx and the Regisry.
* You dont have to patch or register any dll or exe its done automatically.
* I also added Uninstall entries in "Add-Remove Programs" it will uninstall both VAIO and the Sidebar
* You can later add the Vista RC2 serial just by going into C:\VAIO and cliking on "setup.bat".
