Re: halo 2 uninstallation

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.
