ARHH!

Okay, heres the thing. I went to the video store and hired Medel of honour allied aussult and installed it. I had to take it back, but since it was so fun i went and bought it from the store. From my bought copy, i installed it, but when i go to play it it says i have the wrong disk. I tryed to uninstall it, and that worked, and then i tryed to uninstall the video store version, and it just goes from 0% to 100% in 1 second and does not uninstall it. Should i just delete any trace of the game and re-install it from my bought copy?

Thanks

yes u could delete the game and then search the registry for any moh:aa entries, usually in the HKEY_USERS folder and delete ALL values found for mohaa, just search for them.....
just out of curiosity.....when it said wrong disk, u DID put in cd1 again rite? cuz the game finishes installing on cd2(if i remember rite) and then u put in cd1.....just wondering.....:D

If ''Regedit'' had anything to do with DOS, then im just going to sit down and cry because ''DOS'' scares me!

back up ur registry...
thats start-->run--->regedit-->file menu--->export--->type a filename
now if u delete something u shouldn't have, u can just click on the backup registry thing and everything will be brought back to normal......

You might try if possible reinstalling the game without uninstalling it, then you could try to uninstalling it and see if that works. I suggest trying to do this first then try the registry later after that.
