Rick,

what you needed/need to get is the msicuu2 (Microsoft Windows Clean up Installer) tool from the Microsoft download web site, it is made for just such problems.

HI: Well, I had a broken install of Sql Server 2005 and 2008. I tried just about everything to fix it with no luck. I could never remove the instance of 2005 until I wiped my C Drive and Reloaded Windows. I am very, very careful about downloading and installing that puppy now! I was able to download and install other named instances of Sql Server Express even with the broken instance but I wanted it clean before doing some work on a series of articles concerning ASP, VWD and Sql Server Express.
Anyway, that was the only way I finally got rid of the orphan files.
