Try uinstalling it in safe mode. If that also works try this. Install Mandriva Linux 9.1 or
higher. You can access all Windows partitions , including NT partitions. To access C
drive type '/mnt/win_c' in Konqueror(KDE). Go to the folder where American Army is
installed and delete it!! That's all it will get deleted 100%. ZoneAlarm Pro used to
give me the same problems, and I deleted it this way!!

deleting the folder DOES NOT remove the game completely.. there are registry files etc. which are still left..

what error does it give when u try to uninstall it?? maybe that will help/

If it has an entry in Add/Remove, simply delete the game folder and then click uninstall, it will erase the entry after an error and clear up a bit of its entries too...

enter safe mode
install the game again in the same folder.
then try to uninstall it.
u may have to reboot...

if it dznt work, again go to safe mode and delete all the programs folder.
then use a good junk/registry cleaner to clear pc junk.
try this one www.ccleaner.com
u can also use it to remove invalid entries from ur 'addremprogs'.

try one simple thing.. go to the installation folder and look for uninstaller files like uninstall.exe or setup.exe or something similer..

this usually works for such problems
