problems uninstalling program completely. Help?

DocSigma said:

Sounds good. I'll try the revo uninstaller. I already had the registry I saved after i went through the starforce activation after i initially installed the game so i have that already. The only registry stuff involved is when i reinstall and before running it for the first time i just reapply the saved registry i've had when i purchased the game. It does install fine though in a different directory its just trying to reinstall clean into the directory it was in when the problem occurred isn't resulting in a clean install.

I used to create a restore point before installing anything new, and now that i'm back using windows it looks like i really have to be diligent about doing this.

You may want to try what I have. System Restore once a week or when I make a change. System Image Once a month. SI is kept off my HD, since it is insurance for crash, etc.

Everyone here feels so much satisfaction when our help is appreciated. Thanks for the comments.

Adding a restore point at the times you suggested is a great idea and one i'll be doing always from now on. Also, while i was poking around win7 ( just started using it and still finding things out) i did see that there is a utility in there to create an image which is pretty awesome. Creating one once a month like you suggested is another great idea i'll be employing.

By default SR makes an image on schedule. You can adjust the schedule by going to the task scheduler. Type the name in search to find TS.
