If that fails (Game thinks it's installed, when it isn't), you may need to do some registry modifications or make sure all the game files are removed from your system manually. Like I said, depends on which game it is. You might just try calling the publishers tech support line for help. Phone number should be in your game manual. -- -A. |

| | Re: Uninstall Games from Vista Thanks Andy, Have reinstalled OK but the game is too resource hungry for my Graphics and Motherboard, Auran Trainz is the game. I looked at removing the Auran folder but got a warning about files that setup did not put there and removal could prevent other applications from working, so got scared off. Do you know of other games that are not so resource hungry, I have an SiS motherboard with Mirage 3 on board graphics.
