Thanks for the reply

I unistalled from add remove programs but it took much longer to unistall than when i rememberd from previous times
it removed ok but i had a patch installed aswell so it might have confilcted
i tried to run it this is what i had
i have also been in REGEDIT and i seemed to have removed all the files although im not sure ive done mutiple checks on it
and i do not want to wipe the computer clean and start again because i have to much precious files and programs
could i just buy the game again and try and install that one ?
