Hi. I have a problem with Far Cry 2. Since I uninstall the game and later want to install it back I find a big problem. I simply can't install the game. When I put the DVD in the DVD player and run the setup. The window pop up with uninstall first. So I try to uninstall and its looks like the program is uninstall itself. After uninstall I press the "ok" and start setup again. But the uninstall pops up again. Its looks like something remain in registry or I don't know. I tryed many different uninstaller without results. Tryed also find every ubisoft register key and deleted it. But didn't help eighter. So I am verry unhappy because I love this game and now I can't play it. Also I don't want reinstall my OS because of it. If I remember well I have something similar with MOH Airborne, and I can't play that too. Since I uninstalled it. :( MY OS is just 2-3 monts after fresh install so can't be that bad.

Is here any1 who have something similar problem as I? And have a solution too? I try to find the solution on google and Ubisoft forum. But no solution even no problem like this. The games are a legal copy so must work.

I also have a problem with GOW but its a bit buggy game anyway :D ( I mean the instalation).

Maybe your computer remembers that game and doesn't want to have anything to do with it. Since you are familiar with the registry, I think searching for "cry" would be more likely to find the keys for it.

Far Cry 2 has that stupid limited install feature. That may be your problem, but I don't know.

You can try downloading Ccleaner, and make it clean the registry files for you, It might detect the leftovers from the old install and then delete it.

It is a free program, and as far as free registry cleaners, that one is one of those least likely to mess anything up.
