12-21-2007

my halo 2 did not uninstall properly and had given an error.i thought it was
fine as halo 2 was not in the list of installed software.Now when i try to
reinstall the game it says there are missing game files.how do i uninstall
what is left of halo so that i can reinstall and play the game?

You will probably have to search through the Registry and search on Halo 2.
Delete all of the entries, reboot, then delete all of the left over files.
(Editing the Registry can lead to system unstability, so you'll want to back
up the registry before you start.)

Good luck.
