It appears to me that the cert chain is still pointing to the old
certificate.

Go on the server itself and inspect in the IIS, directory security, the
certificate. Is is the proper one? You may need to rerun the cert
request and go to the Cert authority and run the rekeying wizard.

Bottom line, in my experience this isn't an issue with Vista, but rather
your certificate on the IIS side.
