CRM Manually uninstalled now problem

Question
-
Hi,
I manually uninstalled CRM using the following steps.
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/946980
Now when I try to re-install I get the following error
ReadRegKey(CRM_Server_InstallDir) failed. For additional details see log file.
Does anyone know how to fix this?
Thanks

Hi Jimmy,
Can you please let me know the tool you used?
Thanks
Arjuna.
I use this tool http://www.registry-cleaner.net/, that's supports WK8, but you can search in internet for another one....- Marked as answer by Jim Glass Jr Thursday, February 4, 2010 6:50 PM

Are you sure you have deleted subkey HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSCRM ?

Yes I have, just double checked. However what I could not do from the above steps is find the key 059DD8CB00184F24E99A62CF4D6109FA as given in http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/946980. This might be because CRM did not get installed properly in my machine in the first place.Wednesday, February 3, 2010 11:26 AM

I had this issue once, I solve it running a Regsitry Cleanning tool and removing all references to the old CRM Install

Hi all,
someone has found a way to reinstall crm 4 after a manual remove? Product installation on win 2k8 r2 went wrong and since then it does not install anymore. I think only the strongest viruses are so hard to remove.
On that test machine i've already installed sql 2008, sharepoint 2007 enterprise and commerce server 2009 with contemporary site. Now I can't believe I must reistall the whole machine.
Someone could help me please?
I have already seen the Microsoft's article http://support.microsoft.com/kb/946980/en-us
Thanks a lot in advance

Hi,
Did you find solution to that issue?....ReadRegKey(CRM_Server_Installdir) failed
I tried everything. Cleaned the registry as well. Still stuck there. Not able to reinstall CRM.
