I think your both right, I understand how to remove a game completely, I'm quite familiar with goinmg into regedit and taking out every last little detail.
I even removed the Ubisoft folder and all it contained, and the SEGA folder for Medieval Total War as well though that game is not my big concern here.
I read somewhere that taking out the CMOS for a minute or two also works. I've noticed on a couple of games forums where people are having a similar difficulties as myself.
I wonder if the disks themselves have some sort of cut off, like a specific number of installations beyond which they cannot be reinstalled. I seem to be having an inordinate number of problems with games even though my machine is only about a year old and has all the latest sound and video drivers.
Somewhere else I heard that I'd be better with a dedicated sound card as opposed to the inbuilt sound card on my mother board, does any one have anything to say to this?
