I have unistalled this game plenty of times and had no problems but i unistalled it two days ago because it wasnt working correctly usually if you reinstall it its fine the game is Swat 4 made by Sierra

the problem is when i click install , illegeal system dl 32 shelll located please call your dll proivder ,

i have googled this and tried regedit and i seem to have deleted all the files but it still wont run any ideas

Hi,

Could you please post a screenshot of the error message for us?

When you unistalled the game last, did you remove it through Add/Remove Programs (in the Control Panel) or did you just delete all the files?

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 ?

I have deleted all exitstance of swat apart from these two E:\autorun.exe and E:\setup.exe

im am wondering does this have anything to do with the game or is that the drivers themselves that i will be deleteing ?

If you removed the game through Add/Remove Programs, there shouldn't be any files left to be deleted. However, since there are, just delete the entire folder (make sure you're deleting the right one, of course). I'll do a bit of research on that error message and find out exactly what it means.

Thanks , there seems to be no evidence that there are any files left to do with that game apart from the above mentioned should i delete them and see what happens

have you found any further info ?

Hi,

My apologies for taking so long to reply - I've been away a bit on business trips.

Firstly, read this and see if the solution there helps.

Otherwise, try the following.

Try using the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility. As long as you installed the application using the Windows Installer, this utility will remove all the folders, files, registry keys, and entries from your system and allow you to start over with a clean slate.

Download the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility
Locate and run msicuu2.exe to install the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility.
Locate and launch the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility on the Start menu.
From the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility window, locate the application in the list and click the Remove button.
Once the application has been removed, click the Exit button to close the utility.

You may now reinstall the application or at least have piece of mind that it is gone

Let us know how you go.
