some time ago i installed cod2, i got bored of it and uninstalled it, but it never fully got uninstalled (it's still in configuration window -> software)
however i deleted all files from my pc, but now i can't fully uninstall the game and i cant open the installer windows (it says something is wrong with C:/WINDOWS/cod2install.msi or smth). so i decided to install it this way, i copied the files from the cd to my harddisk map into the original call of duty folder (C:/Program Files/Activision/Call of Duty 2/) no problems so far. I open the game, made a little cfg and quit it again.
However I want to patch it to 1.3 now, so I downloaded the patch and run it, but at some point the windows installer stops and says that the installer cannot verify my current version of cod2 and i should verify if i installed the game correctly (which i cannot even do)
so what should i do to fully destroy everything from this game on my pc so i can reinstall it?
no i dont want to format my pc. i would also be grateful if someone could just give me the files i need for the 1.3 patch :p
EDIT: oh btw it is the original CD with original key

highskilled time!
edit* maybe try hkey_classes_root
when i ran the cd, and it came up with the install menu n stuff it got partly through the install, then failed. (after i had already uninstalled cod2 once)
when i 'explored' the cd and ran the setup from there it worked fine, as well as being able 2 patch the game ;O
maybe not the same problem though. :<
