there is no rtcw 1.44, you mean 1.40/1.41. Google got me this:

here's what fixed it for me: after uninstalling via control panel (which does seem to remove the registry entries), go in to program files, you'll see a bunch of files that didn't get deleted during uninstall. remove them, or move them somewhere else. then reinstall.

this means you probably won't get your save games back, or your key assignments, but at least the game will work. that is, it does for me.

maybe you can find a way to move some of those files back to restore your saved games. i have finished the single player game, so i didn't bother trying to keep or restore my saves."

try deleting the autoexec.
update gfx drivers.

dunno after that. Maybe 1.41 should come after GOTY mappack
