Medal of Honor Installation

Hi Brad,

Here's how to uninstall a game when using Add-Remove programs fails:

Step A: Start your computer in Safe Mode by holding down the F8 key.

Step B: Reinstall the game to the same folder it was installed to originally,
and then try to uninstall it again using Add-Remove programs. If
that fails, delete it's folder and any save games in My Documents.

Step C: Install and Run Regcleaner and if it finds any stray registry keys for the
game, delete them: http://www.majorgeeks.com/download460.html


Cheers,
Jimmy S.

| Thank you Jimmy, that answered my question. RegCleaner is a very helpful
| program, it helped take care of the installation problem and a few other
| uninstallation problems as well.
