Oblivion install problem HELP!

Ok, awhile ago I uninstalled Oblivion, probably using the Add/Remove programs (it was awhile ago). Then I went and deleted the files from my Program files. The only problem is one file stayed on the computer in the add remove section, but I can't remove it. Now when I put the disk in it says play, but the game isn't installed, and when I hit uninstall, it says the exe isn't found. So basically I can't install or uninstall it.Help?Oblivion install problem HELP!
oblivion still has entries in the registry that need to be deleted. either get a registry cleaner, or if you know the way around the registry you can do it yourselfOblivion install problem HELP!

What are you trying to do, install or uninstall it completely?If you're trying to install it just go into My Computer, right-click your drive with the Oblivion DVD in it, click ''Explore'' then run the setup.exe on the DVD. It will take you directly toOblivion's installation and you can install from there.If you're trying to uninstall it fully, either follow the above post, or if you're uncomfortable doing that simply reinstall it using the method I post above, then uninstall. With luck the uninstall will actually clean it outafter doing that.
Thank you very much, lol! I was trying to install it, and I never knew about explore. It's working and I'm installing it now. Thanks.
Yeah, I remember reading about this glitch in the readme; it should work fine if you run setup.exe from the DVD.
