Setup problems . . .

Well, I wanted to uninstall then install GTA IV so I could go back to the patchless version and install some mods. When I went to Vista's 'Programs and Features' and clicked uninstall, instantly it popped up saying that it may not have uninstalled correctly, and that I should use administrative settings. I did, and it did nothing. It simply would not uninstall it, no catches. I went onto the IV Disc, and when clicking on autorun, it said either back or Launch Social club, so obviously it still thought the game was installed. I deleted the whole 15GB IV Directory, same thing. I then went through and deleted every registry key I could find, and finally it gave me the option to install. I clicked it, and the window disappeared but then came right back up the same thing. Now it wouldn't install it!

I also have EFLC from D2D installed. I've tried disabling all of AVG, and disabling DEP, as well as using compatibility options. I determined that me moving my temp files directory isn't causing it.

I think it may be a Windows Problem as just for kicks I tried uninstalling EFLC and the same EXACT thing happens. Except, I didn't actually delete the directory, so the game still works just fine. I won't do anything!

I'm running Vista SP2 and am totally up to date on all updates and have Windows Live for Games V3.3 and both IV Installations were fully updated.

How to I reinstall the game?

^Wow, sorry, lots of typos there from quick typing . . . Just try to understand the stupid parts . . . <_<

EDIT 2: And when clicking directly on Setup.exe on the disc, it simply just doesn't appear. No errors or anything. It won't even open in Task Manager as a process.
