Please help me get rid of faulty LCS 2005 install, so I can proceed with OCS

I made the mistake of attempting to install LCS 05 Enterprise without reading the instructions. First I installed on my DC; found out later that won't work. So I removed it, without deactivated the server. Next I installed on a member server. But it never would work; I think b/c it still shows the original server that I removed it from. So I deactivated the 2nd server, intending to remove everything and start from scratch. But I can't find any way of deactivating from the first server.

I want to install OCS, but I really want to clean up my mess before starting. Does anybody know of a way of deactivating and totally removing Live Communications Server 2005? Oh as far as computers - both servers running 2003 Server Enterprise.

Thanks!
Brian

Hi
You can refer to blelow link for more information about uninstalling the LCS .

In my opinion, you'd better rebuildl the OS to install the OCS 2007 R2.
And you can refer to below link:
