A short while ago I installed a game "Star Wars Knights of the old Republic". I have since removed it, however, it still shows in Add / Remove Programs although there is no bytes showing. When I highlight it to remove it, nothing happens. How can I remove
it? I have XP Home. Thanks much. Fred

First try going into add/remove, click on the left over entry and choose
remove/uninstall. XP should see it's not there anymore and remove it. If it
does not then goto: start, type in regedit, hit enter.
Navigate to this key:
hkey_local_machine\software\microsoft\windows\curr ent version\uninstall
Expand the key to see it's sub folders, then delete the ones you don't need.
(you can export them before delete to be safe if you want).
