regedit

As a last resort, You can run "regedit", search for anything with "mohaa", and delete it. But, doing that can be dangerous to the health of your PC!

Moh leaves some sh*t in the 'program files/installshield installation information' folder (hidden folder). There you will find some folders with random names, one of them belongs to moh. Delete this folder and you're fine :)

regedit is always a last result, but literally LAST. never go into regedit just to mess around, bad idea. just to clarify that.

well,the windows registry usually is full of sh*t ,anyways search for the file that the wizard keeps saying its missing and delete its key from the registry.open up the find option in the registry editor and type the name of the file and hopefully u should find it

I had this problem, my cd drive busted as I was halfway through installing and then I wasnt ever able to uninstall the bit that had been installed. I went to the EA site and couldnt find the answer so I mailed them and they sent me a little .exe or something which fixed me right up, im at work so cant post the file ( not even sure if I didnt delete from my personal comp ) I will take a look when I get home.

Try checking out the ea site, and mail them, same or next day they will send you the remove file.

Sorted :)
