can't uninstall sql 7

[dbmsguy]

when I try to uninstall SQL 7 on my WIN2K machine, i get error saying that c:\mssql7\uninst.isu is corrupt.

is there any suggestions as to how to get it out of my system?

one thought was to get rid of all of the registy entries for it and then try to reinstall... but then, maybe that would make it worse too.

any suggestions would be helpful. Paul

what I ended up doing was:

1. rename the registry entry to _old
2. rename the mssql folder to _old
3. reinstall sql 7
4. remove old folder and registry entry.

all seems to work fine, so I assume this to be a valid method... Paul
