daggy Posted January 15, 2010 Posted January 15, 2010 Hi, If you've seen my other thread you'll underrstand my problem a bit more :) Well I decided to try and solve it by doing a system restore, however that made things worse. The game then refused to start up at all, simply going to a blank bluescreen and then crashing. I've tried manually uninstalling the game as when I run the uninstall it says the installshield has stopped working. I manually removed all lock on files (i think), but when I run my disc it doesn't give me the option to install,only to play the game, uninstall the game etc.... To manually remove I searched in the start bar and deleted any file I could find. Anybody think of something I could have missed? Registry keys maybe?

Silent Warrior Posted January 16, 2010 Posted January 16, 2010 This is when the registry sucks... If the comparatively safe removal of the files doesn't help, look around in the registry for a Lock-On entry that gives the impression of being safe to remove - maybe that will be enough. (Also keep an eye out for your activation-entry - I believe that too is stored in the registry. You might NOT want to remove that...)
daggy Posted January 16, 2010 Author Posted January 16, 2010 Thanks for your help guys... I found the problem.... the installshield wizard was corrupted, so I had to make some modifications and update installshield, or rather replace the broken drivers... voila, uninstalled lomac, reinstalled and it works. No idea what caused the initial screen problems, but blah nvm
