after having some major problems with rtw:bi and the uninstaller not actually uninstalling anything I removed the activision folder manually. big mistake as the RTW installer (setup.exe) only gives me an option to "uninstall" and when I try to uninstall it kills the machine stone dead with a blue screen that requires a switch off/on. i'm wondering if I can run setup.exe with a switch or option to force the install rather than an uninstall.

any help would be appreciated?
