You load the mri/orig in tkmedit as main volume, then:

File-->  Load Transform for Main Volume -->  and select 
SUBJECTNAME/mri/transforms/talairach.xfm  *or* talairach.lta

now you should be able to toggle between the two volumes -- check to make 
sure the talairach is aligned properly (e.g. corpus callosum, anterior 
commissure, temporal lobes are roughly where they should be, the entire 
talairach transform should also be in the field of view)

if one of them is good, then use that one
if one of them is bad, rename it to talairach_xfm.bad
of neither one is good, remake it by running:

talairach_mgh SUBJECTNAME

(should take about 20 minutes)

2)  that depends on what you're using tkregister2 to register -- if you're 
using it for the talairach transform then you should use it as soon as 
possible in the process...  what volumes are you registering?  it can also 
be used after recon-all to register functional data of course, but this 
seems an obvious point so probably not what you meant
