I installed Baldur Gate TOSC while looking in ADD/REMOVE list. Then it froze the installiton and I caceled it. Then Found that I was unable to Uninstall the game and cant remove it from the ADD/REMOVE list... Pop in the BG cd and it say "PLAY" but no INSTALL :confused: Basicly I'm stuck at that point... It also happened to McGee ALICE game.

I use M$ Window XP Home edition

Had anyone experienced this before? Know a way to fix that?

Rip the folder out and reinstall it.

There's no folder there :rolleyes:
Unable to locate the installation log file C:\programs files\black isle\baldur's gate\ uninst.isu. Uninstallation will not continue. Problem is the folder doesn't even exist...

Well? Install it again. Games are not really heavily written into the registry. What's the problem? You feel the need to remove the Add/Remove entry? Try this:

Try installing without deleting anything prior. Maybe the installer will have a Remove or Uninstall option.

I can't install it again Cause the only opinton I have is PLAY or UNINSTALL but can't uninstall at all. Otherwise it would show INSTALL only and no UNINSTALL or PLAY.

Stick the cd in...forget about autorun.
Go into Windows Explorer and into the cd rom drive......then find the setup.exe file
Install it that way..

You can also go in the registry under LOCAL_MACHINE\Software and remove the key for the vendor. Then search the registry for the name of the game and remove all of those keys.
