Also... isn't the uninstall file on the CD as well? Couldn't you have run it from there?]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21045174 Tue, 02 Sep 2008 13:21:18 EDT Re: Reinstall Civilization 4 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21030096 chucky5150 :

Mind saying what you did in case people with similar problems in the future stumble upon this topic and want to know what worked for you?
pff you want me to do what... no way!

Ok. I found a way, using Ashampoo Uninstaller, to delete files from the installed files list (I guess the list that add / remove programs uses).

I did that and then tried to install again. It worked.

The game was giving me an error so I had to uninstall the game the hard way, via ashampoo uninstaller.

only now when I try to reinstall the game it gives me an error saying it's already installed.

Is there a way to force the install? What do I need to make sure is deleted to get the install?

Yes, the program file is deleted.

This is on windows vista

Thank you.
